Cold start to Friday; warmer weather in sight

ORLANDO, Fla. — It was another cold start Friday morning across Central Florida, with much of the region experiencing temperatures in the 20s and 30s, Channel 9 certified meteorologist Brian Shields said.

"The winds are lighter, so there isn't a big wind chill, which is good," Shields said. "However, lighter winds means more frost. You may need to scrape some ice off your windshield this morning."
