Repent and trust in Jesus. He's the only way. We deserve Hell because we've sinned. Lied, lusted stolen, etc. But God sent his son to die on the cross and rise out of the grave. We can receive forgiveness from Jesus. Repent and put your trust in him. John 3:16 Romans 3:23❤😊❤❤
The state of Florida (not the Keys) is quite cold during most winter nites 20s-60…especially north of Broward. If you’ve had a frost… ever… you’re disqualified from the tropics …only Key West and Honolulu are tropical…Miami Beach, so close.
As a Florida native I find it hard to believe we'll actually have a real winter. If anything, we might have two days of 40 degrees and the rest will be in the 80s.
I’ve lived in Orlando my whole life and it has gotten COLD here some years. I remember one winter in the 90s when it got down to 16 degrees. I slept by the fireplace because my parents wouldn’t turn the heat up 😂😂😂
Repent and trust in Jesus. we deserve Hell for our sins. For example lying, lusing, saying God's name as a cuss word and stealing our just some examples of sin which we can all admit to doing at least one of those. For our sin we deserve death and Hell, but there is a way out. Repent anf trust in Jesus and you will be saved. Repentence is turning from sin. So repent and trust in Jesus. He will save you from Hell, and instead give you eternal life in Heaven. John 3:16 Romans 3:23❤😊❤
@@timsmith2525 Its been to hot here in Florida as well as many other states and countries with destructive fires. Planets heating up..many days crippling heat herr in gulf coast and very bsd humidity Looking forward to cooler temps. However Florida in winter can sometimes get to to low 30's especially in February. Flu is bad in February too..Many homes have no insulation and and can get very cold.
I’ve lived in Florida since 1965. Our rainy season is 8 to 9 months long. Our dry season is January/February to May/June. Just my experience here on the space coast. Average temperatures is misleading. I’ve experienced a winters with no freezing temperatures. I’ve also experienced one of the most extreme winters (in my lifetime) about 10 years ago where we had 4 different deep freezes. One freeze was so cold that our palm trees were dying. Back in the mid 80’s, I remember going to work in Orlando (I work outside)on a day it was 9 degrees. The climate/weather is always changing/different.
Florida lifer, all this fake data about "record" heat is so misleading. The hottest US temperatures were in the dust bowl years, mid 1930's. The agenda driven revision of those records is criminal. Those temperatures were taken by calibrated mercury thermometers mounted in Stevens boxes by Federal employees. One example: June 29th, 1931, Monticello, Florida 109F. That one example is higher than anything recorded in Florida this summer.
Yes! And for it to last THROUGH Christmas Day!! I’m so tired of it being like 40s the before and after but day off it always jumps to like 80 something. 😭😭😭😭 Let me just have ONE thing Florida!
@@yari139 Hi NOT SO BRIGHT, Christmas day in 2022 was one of the coldest Christmas days in Florida since I've lived here in 30 years. Try being a construction worker who actually works outside year around and remembers exactly how hot or cold it was the year before.
@@Dan-zs4rk You must be comfortable, to think like that. You should do a little research, and learn just how difficult it is to move away (which we'd do in heartbeat if we could) when you're NOT rich. Moving is expensive - and there are people in this hellhole who just are panting, hoping for the chance to take over people's possessions and sell them to make that precious, holy PROFIT. (They hope that people will abandon things they can sell.) When this evil state advertises itself as some sort of paradise (and people believe it), well, you get a lot of people who come here and are severely let down. I interviewed a number of homeless individuals who came here expecting a decent job and living being less expensive, and learned to their horror that the one making the promise of a decent job and affordable living was a liar. To a person, they'd lost everything that they valued - sometimes through forced abandonment, and other times through confiscation, usually by a more religious shelter who insisted that "people need to learn that nothing is free and that they must pay something for what they were given!" (Police destruction of camps is another common cause - because they are trying to force homeless people into 'shelters' or to leave the area.) Plus I should add that it's a whole lot easier to dress up for cold, than it is to dress down for heat (to get comfortable, you'd risk arrest and public censure). Don't wish that hell on us - when it's so hot that you cannot cool down (without AC, we might not have survived this last summer). I must add that we've had MANY days here at our place where the heat index was in the severe danger area during this last summer. I've had problems with rich old biddies who (back when we were Christians) insisted that they had the right to be in church without any sort of sweater and wanted the church so warm that I couldn't pay attention and even fell asleep due to heat (a sickening sleep I should add). That's how you're coming across. You're only thinking about yourself, and not about the Other stuck in this hellhole. You need to understand that we didn't choose to move here (in our case, we came here with our parents). Florida is a hellish trap for people who don't have lots of money when they came, or as my brother would say - for people who are trying to start out on their own and find a decent living (which takes a LOT of luck as well as hard work and self-discipline in this state). I will end by saying that I've known quite a few people who moved here for 'the warmth', and after years in this hellhole, came to hate summer because of heat, humidity, and troublesome insects.
I was 10 years old on January 19, 1977 when it snowed in Miami. We stayed up all night to watch the snowfall and get outside before the bus came to take me to school. It was VERY cold that day.
I was 9 myself and remember the "snow". When I was a kid it was routine for the school to use the radiator heaters, and many people had a fireplace. That changed in the 1990's. Since 2010 we have had no winter.
year is different Hot dry summer, rainy summer, nice summer, same is with winter. January February March are the coldest month in Florida. I thought Florida is always warm. Nope said my travel agent. And she was so right. 1990 In Jacksonville FL it was snowing and everybody was told to stay home , little snow and streets were slippery. we got a little portable heater. Someone said ever 10-12 years it’s snows a little. Not good for the 🍊 and also some other tropical plants.
It snowed in Gainesville in 95. I was a freshman in college and so confused - I didn’t have anything appropriate to wear. Not even a COAT (I grew up in Orlando 😂)
It was mid 30s in mid/late January in lower Polk Co, so I wouldn't say we "barely" had a winter. It's easy to remember when you're doing primitive camping in that weather with a kid. From multiple days in the low to mid 20s for Christmas to still having near freezing temps a month later, that's more than we typically get in Florida.
@@RH421939aint lying... worked out of basically chicago.. worked outside at a dirty steal plant... in worst case it got as cold as negative 30 with negative 60 windchills.... needed to take of gloves just to do work.... downright barely livable condition.. even with high end gear I just think how deadly a power grid failure up north would be.
@@RH421939as long as you have water... generally a body can handle the heat.... but humidity and cold combined ic you don't have a good heat source it will not only be painful but out in the extreme cold is imo way more deadly
I saw snow fall in Brevard county on christmas morning 2022. We did have a winter. My first time ever seeing snow fall from the sky was in Florida, and I'd never thought i'd say that in my entire life. It was 29 degrees around 8 am december 24 2022, We got news that the town above us had seen snow fall, so my entire family ran outside and boom, there was flurries falling from the sky little by little
In Florida the mid 80’s is basically natures A/C for us blue collar workers. It’s already cooler now but it’s hot in comparison to the rest of the US. We stay strong here 💪
Have lived in florida for 35 yrs. I have seen it snow twice in florida. More moisture during what is typically the dry time of yr is good news. Florida has extreme weather all the time. Nothing new under the sun. Just happy to see our state wont be on fire for months on end.
As a Floridian I welcome cloudier and wetter weather this winter after the drought and extremely high humidity this summer. The sun has been blazing down every day unrelentingly. Never thought I’d get so tired of sunshine!
@@nulifier47 Been raining nearly every day all summer here. I have not had to add one drop of water to my poll all year. I usually have to add a inch a week, but its been a wet year for us.
In 1989 Christmas eve it was really cold here in Lee county. We turned on some sprinklers and let the hose drip. We had ice cicles all over the house. Closest thing I've ever had to a white Christmas
Last year. It was a low of 23 on Christmas morning, so I put the sprinklers on a tree with a lot of very low, dense limbs overnight. The kid loved having a massive ice sculpture and plenty of icicles to play with. It was in the 20s 3 or 4 nights in a row then and it took over a week for the iced over tree to completely melt. So it's hardly been 30 years. I've camped in January plenty of times where the water bucket by the fire pit was frozen solid (not just a thin sheet of ice, but truly frozen). It does it more often in Florida than people claim, it's just so sporadic and short lived that they don't think about it.
@@marshamckee2479 Dont get us wrong freezing for us Floridians is anything below 50. They only last a few nights after every cold front so you get breaks in between.
@@nelldavila3261Many tourists are shocked. They come without a sweater or wind breaker and sometimes we do have temperature in the 30's and 40's. The nice thing is they never last too long. More like a week at the most!!
I’ll believe it when I see it. I’ve been wintering in Miami Beach for the last 25 years, and the last “cool” winter I experienced was in 2010. Since then it’s been relatively warm every single year and I’m not expecting it to get that much cooler this year even at the height of February.
I was a teacher in 2010, the only year I had that job, so I have a vivid memory of it and I remember the winter being COLD (I live in Orlando). Ever since then, we only seem to get cold when there's a cold front and after a few days its warm again. If this winter is going to be cold, I'm all for it.
This guy is talking about "much below average temperature" for Florida, although the scale really only shows it to be -1.5 degrees colder. That's it. You likely won't even notice. There's nothing extreme going on here at all, in my opinion.
I've lived in Florida all of my life (other than college) and typically during El Niño its cooler and wet...Not every El Niño is created equal though... Other meteorological factors will have a say in what happens as well
I remember the stong el Nino 1997 when we had low pressure systems training across the Gulf and Florida every 3 to 4 days from November till end of February in Florida with big time flooding here in Central Florida
Thank you! For this information as I live I south in South Florida, and what you're saying on your future prediction for the winter totally makes sense, and it could be very possible. We had an extremely hot summer so it's possible to have a very cold winter.
Also keep in mind Florida is a whole state not a city, so not EVERY city in Florida will have the same temperatures… keep that in mind guys. God bless🙏🏽🙏🏽.
cant wait i remember moving from miami to orlando in 2010 and it was in the 20s for a couple of nights reminded me of the early 80s in miami with constant frosts and hard freezes looking forward to more cold weather and the humidity make the cold weather even colder. the cold just run right through you with all that moisture.
As a south Florida resident, I’ll take a cold front anytime. Last year, we turned our heat once for 30 mins one night just to kill the chill. Beautiful winters, no doubt, but summer heat has been brutal.
Okay so Jacksonville to Pensacola you're on the tip of the state line yeah you're in Florida but truly you're nothing like the rest of us come south 100 Mi 200 miles this way. To the tip of Miami. Fry baby, fry :-) you guys, UP there ;) might as well belong to Georgia and Alabama. When it comes to weather.
Would be nice to have some frost warnings this Winter...more than just the week between Christmas & NYE. The last time, i remember a crispy Winter was 2017
well he is not totally wrong though, i would take a couple of cold days. This heat has been cooking me alive for far too many months already. @@timsmith2525
We lived in rural central Florida back in the '70s...it snowed once, and a couple days there was thin ice on the birdbath. Our house didn't have central heat, but electric heaters built into the wall. One in the living room, one in the main bedroom. My room didn't have a heater, and never got cold...
Florida always has warm falls and winters, with Feburary and end of Janurary being the TRUE winter. Its why people complain about never getting jackets sold when it actually gets cold, because Florida is out of sych when it comes to winter. Then March is god's gift to the world with some of the best weather imaginable.
We bought a farmer's almanac earlier this year and they were dead wrong about Florida weather a good 75% of the time. You just have to take it as it comes.
It rained almost everyday this summer in Palm Beach County. Not the 3:30 or so downpour and it gets sunny again. It rains a few times a day. We get a around 5 or 6 cold spells a year down here. It drops down to the 40s. It lasts a couple of days and it goesback to the mid 70s.
Wonderful, can't wait for the cold. It seems every summer is getting worse with the heat. I've been in FL for awhile and this recent summer of 2023 has me contemplating leaving the state. It's not only heat but the humidity that makes it feel like your brain is melting if not near a fan or air conditioning. I prefer sweaters anyway, and even if it's 3 months out of the year, I consider it a blessing when the cool weather arrives, so bring on the cold!
I really wish the comment posters would please specify which part of FL they are in. In north FL where I am, versus south FL (Miami, Naples, Ft Lauderdale) there can be a huge difference in temperature in the winter. Getting down below freezing does happen here sometimes in the Tallahassee area. The one thing that all Floridians have in common is that when it does cool down, well just wait 2 or 3 days and it will warm up again. (I have lived in other parts of FL in the past, and originally from the Northwest.)
Idk man born and raised in Florida but I’m 27 so I haven't been around for 50+ years but for as long as I remember we usually only get a few weeks of pretty cold temp, I’m hoping it’s colder for longer especially in central fl I’m tired or melting.
The snaps don’t last long…this one will be cool and wet. Not saying we are going to be frigid…but with more clouds and rain that may keep us the cooler side. Especially late! - Jonathan
I remember a number of years ago sitting at my grandparents' house in Florida on Christmas day and there being tornado warnings. Pretty sure it was an El Nino winter that year.
I remember back in the early 80s, going through a couple of Christmas freezes. One happened during our first Christmas, and since the community well froze up, we couldn't wash up before getting with family - I spent most of Christmas morning trying to unfreeze the well. A second such freeze happened on Christmas eve, and there were rolling blackouts as the power companies tried to keep things going. We were Christian back then, and I'd rigged up a couple of lights in the church with my old generator sitting outside. The service started, and then the blackout ended for that area - my generator and lights weren't needed any more. It was really cold both Christmases, freezing and as I remember even some flurries of snow. It used to be a lot less hot and humid back then. I used to come down every summer to Florida, to run my parents' laundromat while my grandma and her husband took a vacation. During the summer it would get hot, but not so bad that it made you sick (like in the last decade or so). Every day where the laundromat existed, we'd have rain start dropping on the pavement around 4:50 in the afternoon, and it was as accurate as some of the clocks around there. The rain would cool things off. That was the normal and expected pattern throughout the 60s and 70s. During the winter, there would be colder periods (my dad would bring us all down to celebrate Christmas with his 'folks') interspersed with rain. When I moved here in the late 70s with my folks, the pattern had changed somewhat - a little warmer and more humid, but less rain. At the end of the (expected) rainy season, we could tell because we'd get short thunderstorms starting late at night, and every day getting earlier in the day. The change to cooler and drier weather happened the day after a thunderstorm would roll through in the morning (usually embedded in a clear front-patterned line of clouds). My memory is that the pattern changed again around 2000 - more and more like what we have today. One of my tribal elders who grew up in Dade City, Florida once said that when she was a girl, it had cooled down enough in fall so that in the mornings that they had to wear shoes to go to school. She and her family were talking about moving into Georgia or Alabama because of the heat and humidity the last time we talked. Sadly, she passed in the 90s - and we still miss her. AC during the Christmas season? It's been the norm here (most years) since 2000 or so.
Looking forward to an extended hoodie and jacket season. Maybe some gloves??? 🤔 Yes, definitely. After this summer of "feels like" 105°+ in Ft Myers area day after day, I'll say HELL YEAH, LET'S GO!!! IGUANAS BEWARE...😪
During the winters of 79 thru 81 the freezes in central florida were so severe that the citrus groves were repeatedly frozen. This contributed to groves being sold, greedy developers coming in, and the decline in lifestyle from rural to urbsn sprawl coupled with Disney tourist trash.
In Palm Beach County it is always above average temps for the last decade. Hoodies and jeans sit in the closet for years. You go from running the AC to putting the heat on for 2 days and right back to running the AC. We had 4 cold day last year. I just stayed inside. Record highs to record lows. The untold secret is amazingly high daily lows in the morning.
Can always add layers, bring on the chill. PS the car parked in the sun just warms those bones like nothing else! Florida, nothing beats it✝️✝️✝️ We are so blessed

Born in Florida 62 years ago, actually seen snow falling down melting very quickly, but it would be nice for the kids to see for one day.
Born here too I’ll be 20 in Jan and I’ve heard the legends of snow in Florida. I have yet to see.
No thanks.
I live in Florida, not Montana. Want snow, go north.
I saw snow once in Central Florda.
It was weird.
1989 it snowed here in north Florida jacksonville area I remember it 😢
@slayerkid7 it snowed in 1989 I remember it 😊😊
It snowed in Gainesville in 95. I was a freshman in college and so confused - I didn’t have anything appropriate to wear. Not even a COAT (I grew up in Orlando 😂)
We barely had a winter this year. It was in the 80's from February forward. The only cold temps we had was in December of last year.
It was mid 30s in mid/late January in lower Polk Co, so I wouldn't say we "barely" had a winter. It's easy to remember when you're doing primitive camping in that weather with a kid. From multiple days in the low to mid 20s for Christmas to still having near freezing temps a month later, that's more than we typically get in Florida.
After living in New Jersey for 41 years I will take the heat all year and have no complaints. Thank god I’m in southwest florida now
@@RH421939aint lying... worked out of basically chicago.. worked outside at a dirty steal plant... in worst case it got as cold as negative 30 with negative 60 windchills.... needed to take of gloves just to do work.... downright barely livable condition.. even with high end gear I just think how deadly a power grid failure up north would be.
@@RH421939as long as you have water... generally a body can handle the heat.... but humidity and cold combined ic you don't have a good heat source it will not only be painful but out in the extreme cold is imo way more deadly
I saw snow fall in Brevard county on christmas morning 2022. We did have a winter. My first time ever seeing snow fall from the sky was in Florida, and I'd never thought i'd say that in my entire life. It was 29 degrees around 8 am december 24 2022, We got news that the town above us had seen snow fall, so my entire family ran outside and boom, there was flurries falling from the sky little by little
I have lived in Florida for 50years I remember mowing grass on Christmas.
I went swimming in the Gulf on New Year's Day!
Gainesville looking at a low of 27 on the forecast next Wednesday… made me think back to this video. Good work man thank you for preparing me
In Florida the mid 80’s is basically natures A/C for us blue collar workers. It’s already cooler now but it’s hot in comparison to the rest of the US. We stay strong here 💪
It's the humidity that causes discomfort. Less oxygen in the air causes people to overheat, perspire, and so on.
I'm in Orlando and you are so right!!
Bro this year was brutal outside. Definitely the worst heat I’ve work thru in the past few years imo
I concur
@@DmaxbooThe heat isn't what gets ya.... it's the humidity.
Have lived in florida for 35 yrs. I have seen it snow twice in florida. More moisture during what is typically the dry time of yr is good news. Florida has extreme weather all the time. Nothing new under the sun. Just happy to see our state wont be on fire for months on end.
As a Floridian I welcome cloudier and wetter weather this winter after the drought and extremely high humidity this summer. The sun has been blazing down every day unrelentingly. Never thought I’d get so tired of sunshine!
It’s been raining almost everyday for the past 2 weeks in Orlando
@@kybconvo you’re lucky. The forecast this week in Sarasota called for a high chance of rain every day yet nothing.
Certain trees dropping leaves in August was my first clue.. The plants never lie.
Correct. Brace for cold it's already showing signs of arrival before October which usually means a really cold one.
As a biker, I've been feeling cold in the mornings while I ride in the city for the past couple weeks, winter is def coming a bit earlier this year
That's because we are in a drought and they are dying 😂
@@nulifier47 Been raining nearly every day all summer here. I have not had to add one drop of water to my poll all year. I usually have to add a inch a week, but its been a wet year for us.
@@nulifier47where tf is a drought at lmao it’s flooding in half the world rn
In 1989 Christmas eve it was really cold here in Lee county. We turned on some sprinklers and let the hose drip. We had ice cicles all over the house. Closest thing I've ever had to a white Christmas
Last year. It was a low of 23 on Christmas morning, so I put the sprinklers on a tree with a lot of very low, dense limbs overnight. The kid loved having a massive ice sculpture and plenty of icicles to play with. It was in the 20s 3 or 4 nights in a row then and it took over a week for the iced over tree to completely melt. So it's hardly been 30 years. I've camped in January plenty of times where the water bucket by the fire pit was frozen solid (not just a thin sheet of ice, but truly frozen). It does it more often in Florida than people claim, it's just so sporadic and short lived that they don't think about it.
@@Swearengen1980 I bet the kids had a great time! I know I did when we did it.
Having moved to Jacksonville from Michigan in the spring of 2022, any winter is better than what I'm used to! :)

@@marshamckee2479 Dont get us wrong freezing for us Floridians is anything below 50. They only last a few nights after every cold front so you get breaks in between.
This always happens. We get hit with a heatwave, followed by a cold winter
jan and feb are always the coldest months too
People that work outside are always looking for some cold weather.
There is no such thing as cold here in FL. Want to know what cold is. Go up north

Thanks for all your hard work to keep us informed!
Absolutely! Thanks for sticking with us Cindy! - Jonathan
Hope so. Tired of the heat 🥵 Last winter we only got two days and that’s it 🥵
I’ll believe it when I see it. I’ve been wintering in Miami Beach for the last 25 years, and the last “cool” winter I experienced was in 2010. Since then it’s been relatively warm every single year and I’m not expecting it to get that much cooler this year even at the height of February.
I've lived here since 1984, and yeah I agree about 2010. That's the last year I remember REAL COLD.
I was a teacher in 2010, the only year I had that job, so I have a vivid memory of it and I remember the winter being COLD (I live in Orlando). Ever since then, we only seem to get cold when there's a cold front and after a few days its warm again. If this winter is going to be cold, I'm all for it.
I remember that year. I saw snow flurries in West Kendall at 5 am. I also remember going to the Keys 2 days later and saw dead fish on the shore...
This guy is talking about "much below average temperature" for Florida, although the scale really only shows it to be -1.5 degrees colder. That's it. You likely won't even notice. There's nothing extreme going on here at all, in my opinion.
We had a good invasive species die off that winter. It was frigid, I had to wear my down ski jacket for 2 weeks straight. I'll never forget that.
I hope we get snow again, like in 1989. That was fun.
Same! - Jonathan
Oh no. You can go to Georgia for that.😆
Thanks for the reminder darling, that was fun 💕
That was a cold a** winter.
I've lived in Florida all of my life (other than college) and typically during El Niño its cooler and wet...Not every El Niño is created equal though... Other meteorological factors will have a say in what happens as well
Absolutely correct about that!! We shall see what happens! Will be interesting to watch. - Jonathan
@@News6WKMG definitely and thanks for your response ☺️
El Niño means the nino
You're right. I'm a meteorologist and I'm curious to see what we will get. One thing for sure is we finally got a quiet hurricane season.
lmaooo@@brooktrout1477
I remember the stong el Nino 1997 when we had low pressure systems training across the Gulf and Florida every 3 to 4 days from November till end of February in Florida with big time flooding here in Central Florida
That was an insane year. - Jonathan
February 22nd 98 was the night of the tornadoes.
Every year it "will hit different", and every year it "doesn't hit different".
Actually not true. Last year was expected to be really warm and hit really warm. - Jonathan
@@News6WKMGdude, no. You’re losing all credibility.

This fall has been beautiful so far!!
I like your longer format with more detailed explanations. Good job! 🌞
Yes !!! I love the cold we had last Christmas in coral spring Florida 🥶 I’ll welcome another colder season.
Thank you! For this information as I live I south in South Florida, and what you're saying on your future prediction for the winter totally makes sense, and it could be very possible. We had an extremely hot summer so it's possible to have a very cold winter.
Also keep in mind Florida is a whole state not a city, so not EVERY city in Florida will have the same temperatures… keep that in mind guys. God bless🙏🏽🙏🏽.
...😐
I’ve purchased a dog sled to prepare my family for this upcoming winter here in Lakeland, Florida. We are ready!
Bring on the cold weather in Florida! Over this oppressive heat!
There's still time to escape north. It's not too late...
@@snickle1980 why thank you!! I never thought of that. Lol
Just left Florida and moved to WA, which shows warmer than usual and Florida colder then usual… yes please lollll
cant wait i remember moving from miami to orlando in 2010 and it was in the 20s for a couple of nights reminded me of the early 80s in miami with constant frosts and hard freezes looking forward to more cold weather and the humidity make the cold weather even colder. the cold just run right through you with all that moisture.
It really does! - Jonathan
Thank you for this info. I enjoy your channel.
As a south Florida resident, I’ll take a cold front anytime. Last year, we turned our heat once for 30 mins one night just to kill the chill. Beautiful winters, no doubt, but summer heat has been brutal.
Jacksonville always gets pretty cold, so I’m interested to see how much colder it could get
Okay so Jacksonville to Pensacola you're on the tip of the state line yeah you're in Florida but truly you're nothing like the rest of us come south 100 Mi 200 miles this way. To the tip of Miami. Fry baby, fry :-) you guys, UP there ;) might as well belong to Georgia and Alabama. When it comes to weather.
Would be nice to have some frost warnings this Winter...more than just the week between Christmas & NYE. The last time, i remember a crispy Winter was 2017
Blasphemer! Go back north.
well he is not totally wrong though, i would take a couple of cold days. This heat has been cooking me alive for far too many months already.

Praying for a WARM winter up north. It’s just cold up here especially with the sun zero temps and wind chills.
We lived in rural central Florida back in the '70s...it snowed once, and a couple days there was thin ice on the birdbath.
Our house didn't have central heat, but electric heaters built into the wall. One in the living room, one in the main bedroom. My room didn't have a heater, and never got cold...

I'm really shocked you survived. I couldn't.
Great exposé. Subscribed. I remember January and February 2001or 2002 when in North Port there was frost nearly every morning for 6 weeks.
Florida always has warm falls and winters, with Feburary and end of Janurary being the TRUE winter. Its why people complain about never getting jackets sold when it actually gets cold, because Florida is out of sych when it comes to winter. Then March is god's gift to the world with some of the best weather imaginable.
I’m so ready for the Florida winter.
please let it be real the heat here is just nasty, we need some coldy cold

We bought a farmer's almanac earlier this year and they were dead wrong about Florida weather a good 75% of the time. You just have to take it as it comes.
It rained almost everyday this summer in Palm Beach County. Not the 3:30 or so downpour and it gets sunny again. It rains a few times a day. We get a around 5 or 6 cold spells a year down here. It drops down to the 40s. It lasts a couple of days and it goesback to the mid 70s.
Loving this!!
Thank you and thank God!! South Florida is SOO hot 😩 Please bring the 🥶 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I can't wait
Central Florida here
Wonderful, can't wait for the cold. It seems every summer is getting worse with the heat. I've been in FL for awhile and this recent summer of 2023 has me contemplating leaving the state. It's not only heat but the humidity that makes it feel like your brain is melting if not near a fan or air conditioning. I prefer sweaters anyway, and even if it's 3 months out of the year, I consider it a blessing when the cool weather arrives, so bring on the cold!
Looking forward to some cold weather after a couple of muggy winters and scorching summers.
this is exciting, this summer was extremely brutal, worked outside a lot of it too
Well we shall see! At least a breezy 60 degrees would be welcome for this menopausal hot flashing mama !
I hope so!! - Jonathan
That’s great!!! Being a guy from Rochester this brings a smile to my face, I miss wearing jeans and not sweating!
After the terrible summer we had, idk how anyone could want winter to not be cold. I wish we went i to the 30s all 3 months for this horrible summer
Huh
Move north.
@@fedupamerican296 Nah left the north already. Hottest summer ever in Florida. We deserve cold. Only only ladies hate the cold
@@DCLXVI_SOUL only idiots move to Florida if they like the cold.
I really wish the comment posters would please specify which part of FL they are in. In north FL where I am, versus south FL (Miami, Naples, Ft Lauderdale) there can be a huge difference in temperature in the winter. Getting down below freezing does happen here sometimes in the Tallahassee area. The one thing that all Floridians have in common is that when it does cool down, well just wait 2 or 3 days and it will warm up again. (I have lived in other parts of FL in the past, and originally from the Northwest.)
Idk man born and raised in Florida but I’m 27 so I haven't been around for 50+ years but for as long as I remember we usually only get a few weeks of pretty cold temp, I’m hoping it’s colder for longer especially in central fl I’m tired or melting.
The snaps don’t last long…this one will be cool and wet. Not saying we are going to be frigid…but with more clouds and rain that may keep us the cooler side. Especially late! - Jonathan
Thanks for the heads up
If you're right about this, it's time to break out my leather jacket and get ready for a really nice winter.
October so far has been HEAVEN.
I remember a number of years ago sitting at my grandparents' house in Florida on Christmas day and there being tornado warnings. Pretty sure it was an El Nino winter that year.
I believe you are correct. 2006 I think? - Jonathan
I remember December 1997 thru January 1998 being hot and humid and it rained relentlessly here in Florida.
I remember back in the early 80s, going through a couple of Christmas freezes. One happened during our first Christmas, and since the community well froze up, we couldn't wash up before getting with family - I spent most of Christmas morning trying to unfreeze the well. A second such freeze happened on Christmas eve, and there were rolling blackouts as the power companies tried to keep things going. We were Christian back then, and I'd rigged up a couple of lights in the church with my old generator sitting outside. The service started, and then the blackout ended for that area - my generator and lights weren't needed any more. It was really cold both Christmases, freezing and as I remember even some flurries of snow.
It used to be a lot less hot and humid back then. I used to come down every summer to Florida, to run my parents' laundromat while my grandma and her husband took a vacation. During the summer it would get hot, but not so bad that it made you sick (like in the last decade or so). Every day where the laundromat existed, we'd have rain start dropping on the pavement around 4:50 in the afternoon, and it was as accurate as some of the clocks around there. The rain would cool things off. That was the normal and expected pattern throughout the 60s and 70s. During the winter, there would be colder periods (my dad would bring us all down to celebrate Christmas with his 'folks') interspersed with rain. When I moved here in the late 70s with my folks, the pattern had changed somewhat - a little warmer and more humid, but less rain. At the end of the (expected) rainy season, we could tell because we'd get short thunderstorms starting late at night, and every day getting earlier in the day. The change to cooler and drier weather happened the day after a thunderstorm would roll through in the morning (usually embedded in a clear front-patterned line of clouds). My memory is that the pattern changed again around 2000 - more and more like what we have today.
One of my tribal elders who grew up in Dade City, Florida once said that when she was a girl, it had cooled down enough in fall so that in the mornings that they had to wear shoes to go to school. She and her family were talking about moving into Georgia or Alabama because of the heat and humidity the last time we talked. Sadly, she passed in the 90s - and we still miss her.
AC during the Christmas season? It's been the norm here (most years) since 2000 or so.
I can remember a Christmas that was 80 degrees and sunny-just how Christmas day should be.
Snow birds: Ahhhhhhhh it’s cold…. It’s only 64 degrees!!! 😂😂😂😂
well thats interesting - i feel like it hardly rained last winter in those three months - here in sarasota at least
You’re right about that! We were under the influence of La Niña which typically does keep us drier down here. - Jonathan

During the winters of 79 thru 81 the freezes in central florida were so severe that the citrus groves were repeatedly frozen. This contributed to groves being sold, greedy developers coming in, and the decline in lifestyle from rural to urbsn sprawl coupled with Disney tourist trash.

In Palm Beach County it is always above average temps for the last decade. Hoodies and jeans sit in the closet for years. You go from running the AC to putting the heat on for 2 days and right back to running the AC. We had 4 cold day last year. I just stayed inside. Record highs to record lows. The untold secret is amazingly high daily lows in the morning.
