Cold is a very relative notion. We lived in the Arctic. It is commonly considered cold. Before and after we lived in middle Russia, and it often was cold there…
Then we moved to New York, and it was hot compared to Arctic, and very warm compared to middle Russia. Now, that we live in Florida, in Daytona Beach, and we forgot about the snow... New York became north… and it is a cold place now.
We learned to whine even in Daytona Beach, and are now going through the second consecutive cold winter (compliments to Al Gore and Co.). And everyone is bitching about it being so cold.
First time in all our years here we took the plants from the balcony and brought them inside. It is below freezing on some nights. Before there were 1-2 days like that in winter. Now we already had about 10 days with freezing temperatures…
It is second consecutive winter, when I for weeks do not wear shorts and flip flops, and I dug the closet for a sweater…
I know that many of you would laugh at me reading this and looking at this photo, taken at sunset yesterday. It was 58F, and it was so darn cold. Today it will hit 65F, and it is still below normal. Yes, the trees are green, the sky is blue, and the sun is shining in cold Daytona Beach. Or is it just Daytona cold?
P.S. If Daytona Cold is your warm, you may as well thhink about getting a piece of it. The prices are still very cool (figuratively, of course)
