PENSACOLA -- Wednesday, January 29, 2014, 11:36 AM Interstate 10 is shut down between Pensacola and Crestview after a rare winter storm brought snow and ice to the Florida Panhandle.
The Florida Highway Patrol shut down at least a half-dozen bridges around Escambia and Santa Rosa counties due to ice on the roadways.
Icicles have formed on signs and buildings in Crestview, Florida. The ice has built up on power lines causing outages to 1,200 customers in Walton County.
Schools are closed in most of the counties including in Tallahassee.
Snow in Central Florida is not unheard of. In January 2010, light snow flurries fell in and around Orlando, Daytona Beach, Melbourne and Ocala.
