Too cool? Rubbish. Miami has high of 25-26°C in winter, that's too hot for summer never mind winter.

It's way too hot, even if Miami had it's winter temps in summer they would still be too hot.

This has been going on for years and the ramp up in heating the last 7 years has been unreal. Last Feb was much hotter.

I don't like high humidity in general so I guess I wouldn't be too into it. I'm more a dry-climate type of person. I can hang with hot weather, but dps above, say, 22c are a bit too much to take, so 27c dps ? I'd sleep all day.



Also, going to the beach, getting rained on and then killed by lightning on many an occasion, no thanks.


That said I'd really like to visit the American South, just maybe not in mid-summer.

Anyone that wants to try out my reverse west windflow and walk out at 530am and get slapped in the face with a low of 80f+ and a dew point of 80+ is welcome to give it a shot.

I'd love to live back in Florida. LOL But I lived in the Space Coast area.

I grew up in Tampa, and my problem is the obnoxious length of summers there. We get similar temps/humidity here in NC but not as many months.

Personally I find these to be some of the finest summers in the world.
