Florida is preparing for potential frost and even snow flurries as winter storms impact other parts of the United States. The cold weather has prompted zoos to move sensitive animals indoors and set up heaters. Manatees are congregating at the warm-water outflows of power plants around the state, a behavior they have exhibited for decades. Despite the cooler temperatures, some beachgoers in Miami Beach have been seen enjoying the ocean and playing beach tennis. The unusual cold snap is occurring in late January 2026.
