Florida is on alert for falling iguanas as temperatures are expected to plummet into the 30s and 40s this weekend due to a polar blast. The cold snap can cause iguanas to fall out of trees when the temperature drops below 5°C. Locally, lows will dip into the 40s with wind chills in the 30s by sunrise. The phenomenon is expected to affect Southwest Florida, including areas from Sanibel to Cape Coral to Naples.
