Is it true?

I just got home from school. Right before I left, I heard everyone talking about what happened during lunch. Someone please tell me if it is true. Right here, under the tropical skies of south florida, did it snow today?

It hasn’t in Pennsylvania (today…in my area, at least…)

… It’s snowed here in Appleton < 3 times. There is no snow on the ground. It is really cold. :frowning:

In Indiana, we’ve had 2 hour delays it has been so cold, it was lke - 8 yesterday, and the snow from about a week ago is still on the ground. It’s cold almost everywhere right now.

No.

It drizzled.

No one here knows what snow looks like, and drizzles combined with the wind blowing around sand… yeah, you get it.

I wasn’t there, but my friend’s Spanish class started freaking out when it began to “snow” and ran outside to look. Heehee.

But really… it’s too cold. Twenty-nine degrees? IN SOUTH FLORIDA!!! Brrrr.

Aww man - I wish it was that warm here! It would be in the 10s without the wind here. But with the windchill, it has been as cold as -15 :frowning:

Someone send us your warm weather! :smiley:

It is supposed to get warmer by tomorrow. I am cumfortable in the 90 to 110 degree range weather. I like the summer because of that. I hate the winter when it is like 70 degrees outside. It’s like you aren’t even in florida anymore. They say that the earth is slowly getting warmer. Then, why is it getting colder here. I have lived in florida all my life and it has never been this cold.

Actually…a part of jax got a tiny bit of snow…not my side of though…oh well

I envy you all, its 85 here right now. Its January and everyone’s walking around campus with tank tops/shirts and shorts. I may be a So Cal girl but I’m still a Minnesotan at heart.

its cold here, plus we have 80% humidity, and its gusting at like 30mph! Luckily we have the warm florida sun to keep us from freezing. :smiley:

-45 degree windchill here…

Come to Sunny Potsdam and as you walk to class you can freeze your butt…

I live in Michigan (by the Detroit River/Detroit), and it was 1 degree at 7:15 a.m. yesterday, not sure about today. It hasn’t been that low in like, 9 years or something.

do you floridians know how very spoiled you sound? Most of us would be happy to have that kind of weather everyday!

I love snow, but it never works in my favor (a.k.a.: no snow days gosh diddly-darnit!)

These kids down here do sound a bit spoiled. If you want some of our “warm” weather, would you like to take our hurricanes, palmetto bugs, and mosquitoes too?

For those of you who have not experienced a palmetto bug. It is sort of like a wingless cockroach. On steroids, after nuclear radiation, with an attitude. I stepped on one once and it tripped me.

Please, take all you want.

I don’t think it’s snowed in my area of California for over half a century, at least. I’m too lazy to look up the numbers.

Oh the joys of palmetto bugs…I can remember waking up and having one on my face and 5 on the wall beside me…needless to say, I hate those suckers.

Thank goodness I moved to the wonderful mountains of Virginia…right.

Warren forgot to mention the tornadoes and…oh ya, don’t forget the flooding…my neighborhood floods every time we get a hurricane, which is like once or twice a year. We are also the only place in the world to have both alligators and crocodiles in the same place. (Everglades and Florida Bay) Do you know what it is like to be in your boat on the weekend and pull up alongside a brownish-colored, log-shaped gator that is just staring at you. I have a lake in my backyard and it is full of alligators. I don’t understand why people like florida so much, especially the older crowd who always complain about the heat. These older people don’t even care about their environment. They leave trash on the beach. It’s like they think “Well, we lived our lives, paying taxes all these years. Now we are going to trash the place and make our succeeding generations clean up. We can’t watch where we are going backing out of our driveway.” It is my opinion that once you get to be a certain age, enough is enough. Stop driving! Ok…I am really of topic.

Come down to florida and enjoy our tourist traps. (Disney World,
etc.) I am done lecturing now.
