LAKE WORTH BEACH, Fla. — The Lake Worth Beach Pier is closed until at least Friday due to the potential of strong winds and very rough surf on Wednesday, according to city officials.

City officials said the pier closed at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday.

A cold front that's pushing across Florida will bring us the coldest air in more than a year Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, along with very breezy conditions across Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast.
