Escaping the brutal Arctic blast

Much of the nation is or soon will be shivering under a powerful blast of Arctic air that is literally coming across the North Pole from Siberia. The cold temperatures are potentially record-setting in many locales for early December and would even feel cold during mid-January. BUT....Santa Rosa Beach will escape the brutal cold!! Check out this high temperature forecast graphic for next Tuesday (12/10) which looks similar to the temperature map for most of this week:

The white oval in the Florida panhandle indicates Santa Rosa Beach.  Check out the temperatures there versus the rest of the nation! The shallow and dense layer of frigid air just won't have enough punch to make it to the Florida Gulf Coast. The nearby clash between the cold and warm air masses will result in a 20-30% chance of rain for Casablanca on 30A from Thursday on but it won't be a total washout.

So with high temperatures in the upper 60's and 70s and lows in the mid-50s it looks like a great time to head south to Santa Rosa Beach to escape December's Arctic plunge. Check it out!
