Only been here a little over a year so it is hard for me to say.... I just keep watching the weather reports for where I came from and I'll take the harsh Florida winter anytime!

It has been real warm winters here for past few years. Last big cold snap we had was when all the fish were floating. The freakin closed fisheries. It was bad. Now we just have to divert Big Sugar.

I believe there are old Spanish accounts that mention frozen sand along the coast. Don't know if that meant frost or ice but either way that would pretty cold. They say historically that these "polar vortexes" happen about every 15 - 20 years. Just mother nature doing her thing, I suppose.
