LOL, i know what you mean about the weather. You can get some warm days when it is not suppose to be warm. But yeah there is a spring, summer, winter , and fall. When it snows it is usually under a foot. I remember the year in the 80's when it snowed deep as 3 feet. That was a little much for that area. But it happened. One thing I found out is the humidity is the same here in Fla., as it is in Jacksonville N.C. I assume it is because of the waterways. And both places are swampy. I hate Thanksgiving and Christmas here in Fla. It does not have the holiday feel. I never got use to it. I am glad to be leaving. Might not be important to some people, but it is to me.
Kentucky, a 'hot spot'? Oh man, you've got to put that bottle down, and drink some water for a bit. Seriously, though, the eastern portion of our state has been experiencing heavy net loss of population for at least 25 years. The louisvile(misspelling intended) and Lexington metro stat areas are growing, as is the area across from Cincy, but the far eastern and western regions are losing folks in a steady stream. None of our growth areas, moreover, are experiencing anything like the boom in TN or NC. I love good old Ky, but a 'hotspot', it surely AIN'T!

Yeah, we have seasons over here. The cold ones just don't last as long. Record low here in Greenville is -4 and the record snowfall is 16". Just off the top of my head I think it got down to around 8 degrees this winter. There wasn't any more than a trace of snow for 10 minutes and a little bit of ice.
really? kentucky is a hot spot too now? wow, so many states are now hot spots that were once really never considered "hot spots." nc/ga/ky have always been around, i guess ppl are just now exploring them??? enlighten me on kentucky's popularity --- just b/c i'm curious, that's all...
Well, it would go off topic on this thread, so check out the Kentucky forum and ask around. I get my information from Realtors in various areas. TN is also a hot area now as well. The country is always on the move.

NC wasn't a hot spot 10 years ago -- and parts of TN weren't a twinkle in anyone's eye 4 years ago either. Until the word got out that land was cheap and certain areas were attractive for growth. Investors with vision like to buy low, wait it out, and sell high. Just the way growth starts all over the country.
nani, you should go to northern fla in the winter then, and experience some coller weather. there's a reason why northern fla is NOT crowded with snowbirds in the winter. it's too cold for them... too bad the rest of the state wasnt too cold for 'em i know some really nice northerners, and i've met some not-so-nice northerners.
i have to tell ya though, when i read/hear about all these ny'ers moving to tn/nc (usually because it's cheaper), and moving out of fla, i smile a bit...

I was born and raised in Kenton County Kentucky but when I turned 18 I moved to Ohio. Because the lifestyle is so boring there. To many churches, awful schools. The kids I went to school with were rich annoying brats that made fun of all the handicapped kids. Ignorant as the day they were born. If you're homosexual; Punk; Goth; Hipster you can kiss that dream goodbye. Cause you will get beat up. I dont know what it is with Kentucky but im glad I moved away from that hell hole of a place. Instead of "Where Education Pays" It should say "Where Religion rots you're brain". You have to be the same if you're not the same you get beat up. I dropped out of highschool JUST to leave that misrable place. Id rather live pay check to pay check then let those ignorant people ruin my life. I dont even visit my parents, thats how much I hate Kentucky.
