Gee, thanks Jambo. It is warming up nicely on the peninsula. The Gulf has made it to a tad over 80f.

they are probably right. m Its hot every summer since God knows when.

14,000 years ago we had the first Native Americans wandering in FL and I bet they uttered "Dag Dog, this hot weather causes my leather to stick to my skin"

i think some just move to FL because it doesnt snow. i dont think they enjoy the miserable summer, but they'd got sick of the cold and shoveling snow. so they'll go anywhere to get away from it. kind of like trading in one miserable thing for another, but to some, they are just tired of one of the particular miserables lol.

Pretty much what I've done since coming back to Florida. Half of it is about your attitude towards the humidity.

Yeah checking todays weather for Tampa looks like its really warming up nicely with temps in the low to mid 90s coupled with high humidity all week.https://www.google.ca/#safe=active&q=tampa+weather
Makes me think of all those transplants who left northern climes to escape winters cold only to discover Floridas summer heat and humidity can be equally as uncomfortable.
For comparison this is what i have to deal with this week=https://www.google.ca/#safe=active&q=Montreal+weather
Refreshing eh!

Yeah but you can go to the beach or jump in a pool if you are hot. Now in the Northeast that would not be a good idea to avoid the cold. Thus the heat is easier to ameliorate than the cold.

I would much rather wear a bathing suit than dress for wintercold.

Exactly what I say. I moved here from Buffalo NY and I do not find the summers that bad. I think there are maybe 5 days a year that are just out of this world miserably hot and humid. I work in an office so I am inside most of the hot part of the day however, I would never want to work outside doing manual labor in a Florida summer. People complain it is to cold up north than complain it is to hot down south!! Instead of complain i just embrace and make the best of what i have to work with!
