Please use decimals when stating averages. Half a degree makes a big difference. You're not going to "win" this either if you have no proof for your claim, either in data or theory.
If I am to use exact decimals I must use years 2012-2015 only as those are the years I have kept observations. I will post averages for Key Biscayne and MIA over that time period in the morning.
Except you fail to mention that if you keep going north from Miami Beach you are in the mainland, and there's no water to the north. To be an island you need to be surrounded by water on ALL sides.
You'll run into the inlet at Bal Harbor. Daytona Beach is technically an island as well, though very long.

True, though there's literally like a 200 feet difference between one side and the other. Seems silly to call that an "island", though I suppose it is in the pure technical sense of it. Key Biscayne is jutted out much more at sea than Miami Beach is.
I was going to bike tonight (my brother went out of town and left his bike with me, and said I could use it while he's gone) but I have too much work to do. Plus, I already burned about 700 calories today so I already did workout somewhat.
I think everyone here has a good handle on geography, but I thought the maps were cool.
