DeSantis: Snow In Florida Panhandle ‘Not As Much As Last Year’

PENSACOLA, Florida – Light snow fell around 4 a.m. Sunday across the Florida Panhandle in places like Pensacola, Crestview, and DeFuniak Springs, coating roads, medians on Interstate 10, and even the ‘Welcome to Florida’ sign.

This follows a historic January 2025 blizzard that brought 7-10 inches to some spots, with Sunday’s flurries adding just a trace to 3 inches and no major issues.

Local residents shared reactions like ‘incredibly magical,’ while Governor DeSantis posted on X that it’s ‘not as much snow as last year,’ and Florida public safety officials urged caution on slick roads.
