That is what i typed. Not even close to our dews points and lows. Water temps are from a another planet vs our water temps. They may get in the 60's over there while the gulf is 90f+ here.

Try 50s water temps.

SF proper is the other extreme, too cool in summer. Avg highs in summer are in the upper 50s to low 60s in the city, September is their warmest month with an average high in the mid 60s

Well i would love the temps for my summers. But without T- storms i would get bored fast. Love to see what upper 50's in the gulf would do during the summer and how it would effect our T -storm machine. Make for some crazy sea breezes and not sure it would help make some super cell storms or if it would kill off all of our T- storms.

Cold water inhibits storms, it caps the atmosphere

But for FL cooler air comes in under as air will rise from heating over land. This is what gets our T- storms going in the summer. That is what a sea breeze does. But with water temps much colder i always wondered how it would effect our weather in the summer with temps in the 90's over the land mass.

As you should know with what was out normal summertime pattern we would get a southeast wind and the west coast sea breeze would meet up around Tampa and then showers move toward the west coast later in the day.

Not with water that's colder than the land, and at Florida's latitude, it would completely change the climate. It would be similar to the coast of Namibia in Africa, dry mild desert with regular sea fog that burns off in afternoon

Still wanna try it out. When water temps are in the 50's i really notice how cool it gets in the afternoon with a sea breeze in Feb and March.
