Any sympathy for South Florida?

[Blueface]

Wednesday morning low expected to be around 40 degrees.
They say we may even see freezing temps inland.
Now you cold places folks are wondering why we are complaining about such heatwaves but that is darn, darn cold for us.
I have to pull out my down coat for this one.

[GKitty]

Any sympathy for South Florida?

None. :cool2:

Enjoy the deep freeze guys!

[Don Fernando]

:r I pray for some snow, that's what you get for taking the piss last week, showing the pictures of your new palmtree. Karma is a biatch baby :r

[Ashcan Bill]

Sympathy hell. I was in Orlando last week and froze my butt off, while back home in Cali they were having a heat wave in the 80's.

Thought I'd be able to soak up some Florida rays. Just no truth in advertising! :r

[landhoney]

I love it.
If you see a teeny-tiny little silver sports car blow by you with the top off and a guy that looks like this: :D That's me enjoying this cool weather.
I know the 'fry an egg on the sidwalk' and 100% humidity days are all too close. :mad:
Oh, and savings on A/C bills don't hurt either! :dance:

[Mark C]

Been snowing herre all day. After the cold early last week, 24 feels great.

Do they even sell down coats down there or did you have to order it? :p

[Rabidsquirrel]

That's threadbare tshirt weather right there.

[G G]

Hey I'm in NE Florida and the temps are supposed to almost be in the teens either tomorrow or Wed.

[Blueface]

I figured it would be hard to get any sympathy.:r:r:r

[Zoomschwortz]

It got into the 50's yesterday and I had to take my shirt off while I was smoking outside.

[newcigarz]

I figured it would be hard to get any sympathy.:r:r:r

I feel bad for us. ;)

[icehog3]

Eat ****, Carlos.

[elderboy02]

Oh boy, you better layer up. That 40 degrees is downright cold :fl :tg :fu :r

[Smokin Gator]

Hey I'm in NE Florida and the temps are supposed to almost be in the teens either tomorrow or Wed.

^^^^^ Yep... so NO!!!

[Blueface]

I can't believe it.
My A/C has not worked all day.
House got up to 75 but I have it set to kick on if it hits 76.
So........put some extra cash for cigars in my pocket today.
More cash to come in the next couple of day.
Hurray!!!:r

[icehog3]

I stick firmly by my original statement. ;)

[omowasu]

Ill give ya some sympathy Carlos, since the frost is a bear for the citrus industry down South.

But thats it - last week, my thermometer read -20. Thats still a pretty good spread in favor of South Florida. The 10 minute walk from the train to the office downtown caused my nostril passages to freeze and nasal drippings to solidify over the upper lip... The first minute of exposure is OK, then it is survival mode...

[dccraft]

Sorry Carlos, no sympathy from up north. Envy yes, but no sympathy.:ss

[dunng]

Nope... :lv

[Blueface]

Well, here it is.
Getting down close to 60 already.
Overnight low to hit around 42.
I hope things don't frost up all over the place and I hope we don't get sleet and snow.
OOps. Forgot. That would be at 32.:r

I got sympathy for ya! Dropped into the 60s here the other night, had to close the windows and break out the flannels and extra blankets. Highs are only in the 70's. All the snowbirds laugh at me cause I sit outside at work with a jacket on when it is 78* at 3 in the afternoon!:D

[Blueface]

It is freaking freezing outside.
We are at 43.
I assure you, for us very, very warm blooded South Floridans, that hurts all the way to the bone.
Just checked the Boca Raton Beach cam and it seems folks are there at the beach.
Must be tourists from up in the cold parts.:D

[piperman]

I feel for you blue, it might get in the sixties tomorrow, If it gets below 64 my heater will turn on then I will have a gas bill. :(

[Jbailey]

43 out Carlos? That's still t shirt weather! :D

[Blueface]

In between passing my kidney stone last night, I was freezing inside the house. Tried turning on the heat. Don't know if my mind was a mess from the pain and I couldn't think straight but heck if I could figure out how to turn on the heat.:r:r:r

Happy for you that it warmed up cupcake!:r:r About 18 here with snow. I need to go to Australia where the men are men and the sheep know it.:ss

[floydpink]

It was weird last week. I drove right up to a parking spot on freezing South Beach, got a table out front at News Cafe, and the only one I tripped over on the beach was a homeless person.

I wish I could report that a suprmodel gave me a lingering look, but that would be a lie.

Awesome!!!
Date for sure.
Only thing is you will be here when it is hot here and in Chicago.
Sounds like Mexico is a great alternative for February.;)

Should definitely be fun in Mexico, but you know I love Kris and the SFla Crew!

The heat doesn't bother me....can't wait to move there!

Crappy day alert!!!

Don't come to South Florida today.

[King James]

you can come up here, Carlos.... I think it is like 7 out but we are approaching double digits!

[Blueface]

No way.
If I need a down coat for 40's, there is not enough layers I can find for single digits.:D

[King James]

I forgot to factor in windchill....probably in the negatives out.

Do you know what wind chill is?

Here you go: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_chill


lol

[Blueface]

Do you know what wind chill is?





Isn't that what comes out of my air vents in my house nearly 365 days a year?:r:r:r

In fact, need to run out and get some "wind chill" while in my car.:r

[King James]

yah, something like that. :fu

I haven't had "wind chill" in my house in 13 years! there were times I wish I had but we survived even Portugal without it.

[Blueface]

Forgot to mention:

WITH THE TOP DOWN!!!:r (pissed in my pants)

[Blueface]

Oh, oh.

Two cold fronts coming.

Expected low for tomorrow night is 37 degrees.
Our houses were not made for that.:r
I may have to turn the heat on.
Can someone please tell me how I do that and how do I find out if I even have heat in the house?.:r:r:r

[King James]

was going to ask....does your house even have heat?

[Blueface]

May have to find it and turn it on tonight as will be 43.
Do I need gloves for that low temperature?
Will I be able to throw water in the air like Pete and watch it vaporize?
Should I go buy some boots?
Anyone care for hats? Ski masks?
Wow! This is rough.:r

[King James]

our high for the weekend is 45 and sunny..... may bust out the spring jacket and shorts!

The only reason you should need a ski mask in South Florida is if you are gonna rob a 7-11, Carlos. ;) :r

[Mr.Maduro]

The title of this thread may be relevant on 2/15.

[Blueface]

This is no longer humorous.

Just heard a weather update.
The low for tomorrow is now expected to be 34.
Not sure if we will make it through the night but we need to be prepared.:r

[Jbailey]

34 nice! Bust out those shorts and t shirts.

Did Carlos tell you he found a store nearby that sells edible thongs? They stay pliable right down to a temperature of 33*F. ;)

[acruce]

Please!:rolleyes:

[King James]

getting down to as low as -15 with windchill tonight I heard..... BURRRRRRR

Wind chill is -10 here right now.....I wonder if Carlos would need a muffler and some mittens? :r

[Blueface]

Wow!

Can't even wish to recall that.
Was up there in Chicago a few years ago when it was -7 before the wind chill and similarly, in Indy when I happened to be there the week of the Super Bowl celebration for the Colts.

Not nice.

Orlando expected to be around 17 tonight.
34 for us in South Florida on the coast. Expected to be much, much lower inland. Darn gators better take shelter.

I went over to the controls and tried to figure out how to turn on the heat. Can't find the manual.:r:r:r

[Brock]

:tg Let's see.....Cincinnati, Ohio just received another 4-10 inches of snow. Lot of us would be happy with the 40s. :rolleyes:

[icehog3]

Can't remember when the orange seasons fall, Carlos....any damage to the orange crops?

[MiamiE]

Buy some tampons while your there... :D

[icehog3]

.....

[Blueface]

Those guys are going to have a rough one tonight.
Lots of crops will be damaged for sure in the mid to northern portion of the state.
I think as long as it stays above freezing, they should stand a chance.

[King James]

I hope they do...for their families sakes, and because I love Florida oranges. :)

[Blueface]

Well, just got the latest projected low.
Looks like freezing at 32 for me on the coast.
North and Central Florida is screwed.
Inland from me will likely be in the 20's.

WHO said something about Global Warming?
What is that stuff exactly?

Carlos I did not sign-up for this. They did not mention anything about below freezing in the brochure I read. :fl

[Blueface]

Tony,
They just said with windchill, we will be around 23 to 30 on the coast, with 15-20 inland.

Just imagine, if there is a bit of rain, we will have snow in South Florida.

I'd cover my bird of paradise plants, but haven't found 15 foot sheets.:r

This is good once in a while for me. In case I am ever tempted to move back North, I put my head outside on a night like tonight.

Be back in the high 70's this weekend.

[wrench turner 85]

no, where I live the high tomorrow is a bomby 38 and a low 18. :mad: so bundle up.

[icehog3]

And Carlos, Karma is a *****! Enjoy the cold!





Does suck for the orange farmers though... hope they don't lose too much.

[Blueface]

Most of my area down to Miami saw temps below freezing last night, plus the wind chill onto that.

The northern part of the state sucked!
It was 17 in Jacksonville.
It was 22 in Pensacola.

That is freaking cold for us folks.

Just finished removing all the covering from some of the plants I protected last night. Quite nippy out there for this guy. We are now up to 36 and warming. It has gone up about 5 degrees in the last 1.5 hours.
Expected to be back in the mid 70's by Sunday. I see the light at the end of the tunnel.:r

[Blueface]

That sun does wonders.
Two to three hours later, we are up to 45 from 31.
Starting to thaw out a bit.
I can actually feel my toes again.:r

Looks like the worse is over.
46 is the expected low for tonight.
Then back into the 50's as a low through Saturday, then in the 60's per Tony's post, with mid 70's as a high.

Back to the Florida I know.
