Florida Weather Predictions, Winter 2009
Ahh, it’s getting to be that time of year where Florida starts cooling down. It can’t come to soon for me! We had a lovely Spring this year, then Summer came on with a vengence. And here where I live, we’re still close to 90 degrees in the day, and mid to low 70’s at night. Definitely still air-conditioning weather!
(But at least we didn’t have an active hurricane season this year — I’ve been in enough hurricanes to last the rest of my life!)
Florida Weather Predictions, Winter 2009
So, what are my Florida weather predictions for Winter 2009-2010? As with last year’s (accurate) prediction, I once again turn to the cats and their fur.
Everyone is very plush at the moment, but they started a little later than usual. So Winter will be a bit late coming on, but once it gets here, it’s going to be chilly.
This prediction is split between my indoor cats, as well as the outside strays that we feed. The strays are really furry right now!
So that’s if for my prediction. Catch you again in April to see how accurate the kitties were!
Update: January 15, 2010
Well, looks like the kitties were right once again. Here in South Florida, we had pretty much hot weather up through almost Christmas. Then it cooled down and then….we got a blast of cold weather (including nighttime temperatures in the upper 20’s). It was the longest cold snap I’ve expereinced in a long time, about 2 weeks of nights below 40 degrees.
It’s warmed up a bit, but I checked the kitties again anyway — they are still furry. More cold weather to come!
