With the latest front moving through South Florida starting Friday and bringing cold weather with it, Broward County is declaring a two-day cold weather emergency advisory to help residents prepare.
The advisory runs from 6 p.m. Friday to 9 a.m. Saturday and again from 6 p.m. Saturday to 9 a.m. Sunday.
Those residents needing to stay in a shelter during those nights are advised to meet by 6 p.m. each night at the Salvation Army (1445 W. Broward Boulevard) and the HOPE South Florida Shelter (1100 N. Andrews Avenue) for transportation.
After a quick bout of afternoon showers Friday, winds will pick up and temperatures will dip. Look for clearing skies and temperatures to plummet into the upper 40s by Saturday morning. Gusty northwest winds will keep Saturday's highs in the low to mid-60s.
