Even in Florida, where my son lives (Tampa area) it’s cool. He said it’s in the 60’s.

Florida is generally hot by now. And stays warm there all year round. Thus FL gets “snow birds”, which are people who go for the Winter to get the warm weather and then go back to their home state…generally up north to avoid the nasty, sweltering, humid, bug filled summers down there. 🙂

Thank you for the comment. Snow birds! New to me. Cool. Bug filled? Ack! Don’t care much for bugs.

I hate bugs. The big ones scare me. I hear they are big in Florida. Today a huge green katydid jumped on me and I jumped about 6 feet and screamed. I’m a big baby about things like that.

My son said it got a little cool around December and January and he had to wear a jacket. But Tampa is weird because I hear the northern part actually has seasons (sort of) and fewer palm trees but south Tampa onward is tropical. At least he can drive about 5 minutes to experience tropical weather.

My son says it does get cool where he is.

It’s actually warmer here at 60 degrees. I might just have to get out in this.
I’ve been keeping my eye on that pink flowered dog-wood and it only has a few flowers on it that have actually bloomed. It’s depressing…and weird since the white flower one has bloomed.

That’s weird about the pink one. The most depressing thing I ever saw weather wise was in 2007 or 2008 I think it was–around the middle of April, everything was already in blossom and we got a deep freeze and the temp dropped to about 18.F. All the blooms were killed and the trees stayed bare until May but then just turned green. Hot weather with bare trees was just weird and depressing.

Yeah, that’s weird too. Probably happened here too, but my memory for things like that is sorely lacking. I do remember though that when I was a kid it snowed in April on Easter once, but that’s only because my dad mentioned for years after.
I took a pic of one of the few flowers on the pink dogwood but you can’t really tell that they’re pink. Figures, since I said something about it. lol

Bipolar Vortex, that’s what I call this crazy weather.

Your having a cool day is weather. Some days are warm; some are cool. Global warming is a climate phenomenon and is – well – global. It doesn’t mean that everywhere is hotter than normal all the time; it means that the average temperature of the whole world is rising. This tends to cause more extremes in weather, which, depending on your geography, could mean more drought, severe storms, hurricanes, blizzards, etc.
