Senseless Wednesday Sarcasm : Brrrrrr
September came in like a hurricane and it’s going out like blizzard.
As if life weren’t filled with enough 1st world problems, it’s going to reach 60F tonight in SEPTEMBER!
To a Floridian, that’s sacrilidge.
This might be refreshing in Alaska…
…but in Florida, it’s the beginning of the apocalypse.
I actually had to use socks today! Again!
We never have socks weather until mid-October, but this is 2020 so I shouldn’t be surprised by anything.
In Florida, we take our right to bear arms serious and have 2 types of gun owners.
When it gets under 65F, it’s hard to shoot when you’re wearing a down jacket and thermal gloves.
I started this post a few hours ago. OMG! It’s 60F!!! I just had to change from my flip-flops into these…
…after saving the right shoe from Death by Dog.
Alaska, you’ll never have to worry about a true Floridian moving to your state. Your July resembles our November.
We Floridians dread winter. Just ask the grim reaper, who loves to travel down south with the snowbirds.
It’s only been 10 minutes, and I soooo miss wearing flip-flops.
Three dogs are on my bed, curled up in front of the heater. There is no room for me to crawl in ( what a not surprise). As if it weren’t enough of an insult to snack on my shoe.
Lol, that concealed carry and open carry made me laugh a lot.
I can’t imagine the temperatures dropping that low. Hang in there, Joelle.

Thanks. 🙂
When it’s 90F in the summer, the heat index is around 109F.
South Florida is the tropical climate where you rarely need a coat. We live in a sub-tropical climate where there are varieties of palm trees that still grow, but the leaves fall off the trees in December and leaves begin to grow again in late February.

Idaho has been a bit warmer than normal all through September, and should be very nice for at least another week. I had put all the hoses away and thought mowing was done as it usually is by Oct 1st. But, I had to pull it all back out yesterday lol!

That’s strange. We’re freezing in Florida and you’re warmer than normal in Idaho. It’s like North America has to be cold on one side and hot on the other.

Right? I love this weather. It’s not too hot to do things outside and I have been walking as much as I can to enjoy it.

Here on this opposite side of the ocean this September was the coldest month of the last 50 years. Welcome to our chilly world 😜😁

Coming from the UK, we are well used to colder damper weather, so for me to see people in South Florida wearing thick jackets and shivering when the temperature dropped below 70 made me laugh.
I lived in Broward County for 3 years and it would have to drop down to 50 or below before I considered putting on long pants instead of t-shirt and shorts.
Before Florida I lived in Northern Indiana for 12 years and in the winter when there was 2 feet of snow on the ground, I would go out to pick up the Sunday paper from the sidewalk where the paper boy had dropped it, in t-shirt, shorts and barefoot.
Yes I know I’m kind of crazy, but I don’t feel the cold in my feet, unless I’m in bed on my own and trying to get to sleep. Then, there is no easy way to warm them up.

I know what you mean about cold feet in bed. I wonder if there’s a scientific name for that problem?
I lived in Minnesota and Wisconsin for several years, where September is like January in Florida. Yet I could go out to the car in a t-shirt in winter, start the car, and go back inside without feeling too chilled. That’s the difference between a dry climate and a humid one.
I lived in Dade county (before the name was changed to Miami-Dade). You know quite well what the weather is like in Florida and have seen first-hand how cold Floridians get when the temps drop below 70F.
Both the UK and India are on my list of places to see. Perhaps one day…

It’s the flights that are the problem. I would love to visit Melbourne, and Murren, Switzerland, and Alaska, and a south seas island, and…
By the time I could afford the cruises, I’d be in a nursing home. 🙂
