MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- A strong cold front swept across South Florida today.  Highs were cooler today with highs mostly in the low to mid 70s with clouds around.

Winds have shifted out of the Northwest and will help transport the coldest air of the season.  

"Sweater weather" will arrive as early as this evening because the clouds will clear out and temperatures will fall fast.

Overnight temps will fall to upper 40s inland and low 50s along the coast.

Even the Keys will feel the cold plunge as temperatures are expected to drop into the 60s for the Lower Keys and the 50s in the Upper Keys.

By the way, the last time South Florida was in the 50s was in March of this year, that's 8 months ago!

So get ready and bundle up because on Wednesday, after a chilly morning, afternoon temperatures will be 10 to 15 degrees below normal.

In fact, the forecast high for Wednesday is only 66°!

This chilly weather will last through Thursday and by Friday warmer weather will make a quick comeback.
