Wouldn't have expected that you'd get a "spring green" look in April. Or really much of any seasonal change in vegetation.
Yes, trees lose their leaves here mostly because of dryness rather than temperature or daylight, though cooler than average winters see more of a change.
South FL, especially the inland suburbs, is more brown in winter than people think, though still far greener than actual seasonal climates though.
In a week or two, things will go from "light green" to more of a summer green.
The trees that most obviously go through seasonal changes are bald cypress. Right now they're all pretty much light green.
I wasn't calling you a liar, just an incredible wimp.
Hypocrisy, hypocrisy.
Calling me a wimp for wearing a sweater today and yesterday is no different from me calling you fat because you find 80 degrees warm. It's about the same level of juvenile discourse, which I should add I haven't done nearly as much as you - you almost seemed to believe I was exaggerating when I pointed out many people around me on the Beach were even more dressed than me.

I doubt that even the people in Singapore wear a sweater (for warmth) at 80F. Are you sure you're not exaggerating?

You Even have winter.. how can a tree lose their leaves due to the cold? i think the Bald Cypress in your area lose mostly because the dryness..

It could be the cold, after cold snaps I notice (especially mangroves) begin to get coloration and fall off. Some of it is probably due to shorter days, but I think a lot of it is due to cold snaps. We had almost 10" of rain this December, and 8" this January, numbers fitting for our rainy season and yet many trees did lose leaves.
Dude, have you seen his profile page? He's got pictures of himself. He looks rather fit or "normal".
I know, I'm pretty hot.
