Florida, Sunned-In
Just heard on the news that the state of Florida could be sunned-in for the next several days. Residents have been urged to hunker down at your nearest beach and/or tiki bar for further instructions. Use extreme caution when braving this blizzard of sunshine, preferably SPF30. We are asking our friends and relatives to the north to please keep us in their thoughts as we deal with 2 feet buried in the sand. Emmett  |

I'm in Florida right now and I've found that the natives go into a frenzy whenever the temperature gets below 45 degrees.
Being from NYC all I can do is SMH.

It's like I say to my friends in Austin, TX, who were basking in the sunshine the last few weeks while we froze up here in the NE... I'll be thinking of you this time six months from now!

Well, people kept asking; "Why does it feel colder than you say it is?" So they came up with a reason.
I was in Orlando in August 2005. It was 95 with 89 or 90 percent humidity. I was thinking on the way down of finding out if I could transfer to Wally World in Florida or even work backstage at WDW, but that convinced me that I don't really want to live in Florida... I want to live in Walt Disney World and since that's not really to practical, I gave up that idea. Also I'm not certain I want to live somewhere where hurricanes aren't an occasional menace but are something you have to face several times a year. And also, you have to deal with sinkholes. I hate New England right now, but Florida just doesn't appeal to me as a living destination.

It may be sunny here in Orlando, but the natives are freezing today with record cold!

...and there's another thing. It's rare, but it does happen that it gets cold in Florida and when it DOES happen, you people just aren't prepared for it! Best of luck.

With 7 theme parks in Central Florida you could live in a different fantasy world every day easily. It got down to around 30ish last night .. But it will soon be back to GREAT!!!!

You still have multiple hurricaines pass over or brush by every year. I told my kid about this thread and she said; "Aligators. Any place where you try to go to work and find a descendant of the dinosaur era in your engine is not the place for me." And before Slim points out that it's rare, I didn't say it wasn't, just that it happens.

IMHO .. NO HURRICANES have landed on our shores in 10 years now. We had several in 2005.
