Seriously, it is just too cold. Maybe it even feels colder, because 4 days ago, it was in the high 70's to 80 degrees. I mean 4 days ago, the beaches were so packed I couldn't even get close to a parking lot.

It feels even colder when the temp drops so suddenly... I don't know, the news says 25 degrees from average...I say it feels more like 35 degrees lower than average. One day 80, the next below freezing???
WTH is up with that!
Good thing I'm not the only one. People make fun of me and roll their eyes when I tell them it's too cold for me. Look, I know that I'm better off then people up north, but even 50s is too cold for me. Although I do have to say that crystal clear sky and sun that we had today is beautiful.

I LOVE this. Actually, it is NOT cold enough for me. The hot Florida sun still warms it up too much for me.

I just came back from 18 degrees with windchill of 3. This is NOT COLD, but I will take what I can get until I can move back.

BTW,I just heard on the news that this may turn out to be the coldest winter, not just a few days, since 1902. YES!!!!

Its all good really, it could be worse I could be up North in 28 degree weather..no thank you
the lows tonight tomorrow night and saturday night will be 28 here in orlando, then just around the 30s the rest of the nights with highs in the upper 40s and 50s. . I miss the usual warm winter weather with a touch of chilly air every week or so.

This cold weather will give people one more thing to rant about. That is the price of fresh American grown produce. Some just don't think about what the hit will be on the local and national economy when FL gets hit with severe winters. Just to many flakes missing out of the bowls these days.

I moved here from Michigan just shy of a year ago now. When I left there was snow up to my knees, and temps were in the mid 20's during the day. It was dropping down to the single digits at night. I remember several times when it was below zero.

I know people here aren't used to this kind of weather often, but this is not that bad. If its above 35 during the day, its a nice day.

when I lived in NY, most of my produce in the winters, came from CALIFORNIA, not Florida. It certainly isn't local to here either. Everything I buy in the stores is from South America.

Maybe to you.

A lot of people aren't from up north, or have not lived there in years so this IS cold. Today was not a nice day. I was cold all day, i didn't want to go outside at all, my face was numb this morning... anything over 60 is a nice day to me.
