Winter is upon us, all over the United States.
How do I recognize this when the temps hover at 80 and the flora is green year-around?

I've seen photos of snow and ice hitting those cold-weather states, and that is good enough for me.
Our trusted weather person issues snuggle-alerts when it hits 50. So, you see winter is relative, right?
February in South Florida is denoted by a few changes. The wearing of heavy coats, sweaters and boots is not, typically, one of them.
Our winter brings an influx of human flakes, not the snowy kind.
But, we are about to get some serious cold. The low will be 37 tomorrow.

Again, it is relative. as we see what Boston and other cities are facing. So, we wish them well when they begin to thaw.
Personally, I will slide into my closed-in shoes, drink a hot cup of java and wait for our real Florida winter to return...81 on Sunday.
Gotta dash...

Left-Side here. Yes, while it does get cold in the Sunshine State from time to time, the good news is, it doesn't last long. Digging into weather history, West Palm Beach got its first snowfall ever recorded on Jan. 18, 1977. And in 1989, Jacksonville actually had its first ever white Christmas. But those are what anyone would classify as rare events. Personally, I would rather make sand castles than snowmen.
