What does everyone think about this late cold snap? It's supposed to be 29 in Orlando tonight crying . I'm not a fan- and will be glad when it's back up to 80 this weekend!

It amuses me to hear Floridians complain about how cold it is.
Oh look, it's supposed to hit -15 on Saturday, before windchill. (Right now it's 12 degrees and feels like -3.) The weather here actually IS trying to kill you.

My gripe is when it goes from Shorts Weather to Jacket Weather to Shorts Weather to Jacket Weather to Shorts Weather in short succession like it has been the past few weeks. It's hard for me to adjust with such drastic weather changes.

The weather is not trying to Freeze me to Death, it's trying to weaken my immune system so that Pneumonia can finish me off instead. It's sneaky and dastardly, this Florida Weather. stare

It's supposed to be somewhere in the 70's in Orlando on Saturday and 80 on Sunday.

Biggest problem is the dry skin. (plus I'm allergic to nearly every lotion on the planet)
Now I look like I'm advertising for band-aids from my knuckles splitting.

(I moved away from this cold crap 4 years ago! Stop following me!)

This exactly. I never know what the hell to wear in the morning in the winter until I check the weather. I've made the mistake before of wearing a sweater only to go outside and find that it's 70 and I'm sweating my a** off. Or a tshirt only to freeze because it's 50. Or I'll check and dress appropriately, only to be burning up or freezing later because the temperature changed drastically and I can't go home and change. It makes me miserable and I hate it. I'd actually just prefer it to be cold all through winter because at least I could dress appropriately and then the cold wouldn't bother me.

Also it really annoys me when people up north complain that it is so much colder and that people in Florida shouldn't complain. It's different, and I can't explain it, but in Florida when it gets cold it just feels so much colder and worse. When I was in New Jersey it was colder most days than it was here these past two days but it sure as hell didn't feel like it. I walked all around New York City in the cold, even stood outside for hours on New Years Eve and for the most part wasn't bothered by it (my feet did get numb after a few hours and I went inside to warm up but aside from that I was fine). I don't think I could do that here. I don't know why. But I'm not the only one who has noticed this either.

Yeah, no, you're right. For some reason Florida cold is just as cold as cold cold. It'd hit 30 and the CPs from colder climates would be just as bundled up as the locals. I'd just gotten (yet another) email from the school saying it's supposed to be ******** cold again and that we should bundle up or risk frostbite. But as Zelexia said, I prefer the cold (and it's been overhyped this year anyway) to warm cold warm cold trying to get you to get pneumonia. Ick.

When I went to bed earlier, I ended up putting a blanket over me to be warm and snuggly. Then some hours later I wake up early and am sweatdrop emotion_eyebrow
