Can you believe the other day it was 35 degrees at PBI – hey this is FLORIDA. It broke cold records from 1903. Anybody want to send me some winter clothes (just kidding)
*sends darjeb some shorts and t-shirts*
If it was that warm (I’m assuming Fahrenheit) then that’s what I’d be wearing!!! 😆
Lemme see if I can dig up that fake fur coat… you know, the type that goes all staticky when you take it off? 😆

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmI talk with someone else who lives in Florida as well and she tells me that she plans on ‘moving to Florida’ one day 😆 Like this is why I’m here–to not be soooooo cooooooolllllllldddddd! Sending mental images of hot chocolate with marshmallows! :yes:
Our local news for the treasure coast said that Orlando is expecting snow this weekend…. last week I had to scrap ice off my windshield…before taking the kids to school! im like HUH! WHAT! This is Florida! Its kinda fun thou… a nice change from the heat!

That is my sentiment exactly! We have so much blistering heat for most of the year with only a few weeks of intermittent cooler temps, that this week has been a pleasure. It is not a pain for me at all, even though I’m cold (embarrassed to admit it since I’m a born Yankee), it’s refreshing. You can always put more clothes on (blankets, etc), but in heat, you can only take so much off.
I say I hope the cold STAYS!!! But, it won’t.
Down side only- even when it just rains, people forget how to drive here, imo. If there is ice or snow, theres going to be major accidents. It’s understandable native Floridians don’t know how to handle frozen driving conditions but this state is full of northerners who should remember, or know better how to drive in such a tiny freeze compared to the tons of snow we came from.

Well it’s ALWAYS cold in Jersey during winter, no surprise we’re enjoying the Arctic Chill too. It’s supposed to be very cold this weekend with windchill making it feel like 9 degrees or some such fun. But well that’s what big fuzzy robes and cups of hot chocolate are for!

You know what? I think I hate you both 😈 It’s minus 10 Celsius here – which is nothing compared to what Ruffian gets – but dang it, it’s cold!

Damn straight!! 😉
😆 😆 EDIT- forget it. I was going to say something but I’ll edit it to say FL is NO picnic whatsoever. Having experienced and lived Buffalo NY winters (right next to Can, as well as other parts of NY, CT, and RI), and dealing with heat of FL, I’d take that darn cold, and colder, in a NY minute. I guess everyone feels the grass is always greener, etc.
For those of you in cold climates, stay warm and sending you all the darn heat this furnace state is saddled with- come visit… exit at the sign that says “Seventh Circle of Hell”. And for those of you who are sweltering 350 days a year like us, we send you a bunch of those hand held automatic personal fans and tons of bags full of ice. :hi: 😀
