I remember a few years ago (?) ...winter started off fierce and heavy but then kinda stopped after the first of the year.
I hope I'm not jinxing winter by mentioning this.

Activity here in south Florida:
Featuring a tornado watch!
That's ok... I did a good long kayak paddle loop -- through mangrove swamp and flooded prairie -- yesterday under sunny calm conditions, so I'm content to just hang out today.

Where I was, Long Pine Key Campground, Everglades NP, it got no worse than the whipping and swaying palms and pines seen in my little video.

I'll tell you what winter is: I'm wearing long pants, shoes, and a jacket outside for the first time in months!
I turned the furnace on in my trailer last night for the first time in months!
But it's sunny out, which is normal in Florida with north wind in winter, I think.

This morning I got a call from the guy who runs the motel I stayed in (when not camping) outside the Okefenokee Swamp, near the Georgia-Florida border. Turned out to be an accidental 'butt dial' but we chatted briefly anyway -- about the weather, naturally.
He said, "There was a frost!! Not too normal here lol".
Yessir, what you consider "cold" or "hot" depends on what you're used to.

I remember, a few decades back now, I moved to the Sierra Nevada from Wisconsin and joined a back country ski patrol. A lot of training was focused on cold weather preparedness and I though, "You guys think this is cold?"MarkBC said:

"what you're used to" also applies to to humidity.
I'm still a humidity wimp, but after spending many months in the South I'm getting a little more tolerant.
So I have to laugh when back in Bend someone comments: "It's muggy today!"... meaning the humidity is all the way up to 50%RH.
