This needs to be one of many coldest Januaries I can bear in mind in South Florida. It has been within the 50’s and 60’s many of the month however this coming Sunday morning, temperatures are anticipated to dip all the way down to 31 levels—sure, 31! The picture above is of my pal feeding the ocean gulls on our morning stroll about 7:30 AM when the temperatures had been round 50 levels.
It is going to be chilly sufficient to snow… although I’m fairly positive that received’t be occurring. Though the morning will begin out very chilly, by afternoon, the temps ought to climb again into the mid-to higher 50s. Proper now it is 37 levels.
I am not complaining particularly once I notice some areas of the US are experiencing temperatures within the single digits and even beneath zero temperatures.
With the coolness within the air, I began making a pot of soup. My Instantaneous Pot purple lentil soup was on the menu for dinner, and I prepped a tasty lentil loaf for tomorrow—good meals to heat us up in our “winter” climate.
Chilly Climate However We Have No Warmth In Our Rental
We would not have warmth in our apartment in Florida- nonetheless, as a result of our apartment is so nicely insulated with condos on either side of us and the internal hallway, our condo stays fairly warm- though I’ve by no means been right here when it has been 31 levels! This will likely be a primary in our 14 winters in South Florida.
Day by day Morning Walks Within the Colder Climate
I’ve not let the cooler temps cease me from taking my 1 hour morning stroll alongside the seashore and Intracoastal. I’ve really been having fun with a brisk stroll within the cooler air. Nonetheless, I’ve been carrying a coat. I maintain a kind of puffy coats in Florida that may be folded right into a ball for touring.
Personally, I don’t thoughts the cooler temperatures so long as they solely stick round for a short time. There’s one thing really refreshing concerning the change from the recent climate. Currently, most days have hovered within the mid-60s throughout mid day and solely dipped into the 50s at evening.
Miami Seaside Vacationers
That stated, I can think about it’s a bit disappointing for anybody vacationing in Miami Seaside, hoping for seashore days and pool time.

Just a few years in the past I wrote a put up concerning the iguanas and the way they turn out to be nearly paralyzed within the chilly climate.

They actually fall out of the timber in coma like state when it will get very chilly. Iguanas will be very giant and it’s scary. You’ll be able to learn my iguana put up right here,
Regardless of this chilly spell, our climate will in all probability be heat once more quickly. In all probability again to the 60’s and 70’s earlier than we all know it. We now have a brief winter.
How is your climate? Can you take each day walks? What’s your consolation meals?
