It's not so bad.

Unfortunately, most tourists will probably NOT be prepared with appropriate clothing.

Temperatures should be back to the 60s today, and up to 80 by Friday. Hopefully this was the last of our "winter"

Nah, not yet. This year, Florida's temps have gone up and down week by week. Its like summer one week and winter the next! I will be at Disney on Friday and like Tampabrad said, it will be warm by then! Thank Goodness!

Maybe in the olden days this was a little more understandable, but nowadays can't people tap into a computer and actually see what the weather's gonna be like for the next 15 days? But no, they think they're going to Florida where it's always at least 80 degrees!

When you live in the great white north like I do ( or Trippy) I must admit once in a while I think the cool ( not cold ) air is good for everyone in Florida.

as for here-- we'll be back in the 80's soon too -- like June

That would be the silly UK crowd...who think it's OK for people in FL to walk around in various stages of nudity, even when the temp drops. They are the ones I see doing this in the cold at WDW and around Orlando.

Anyways... the Orlando Airport reported a low of 33, short a couplpe of degress short from being a record low... However... Our friends in Ocala got down to 21!!!! Frosty morning!!!
But it will be back in the 60s today and warming to the 80 for the weekend, for all the frumpy tourist and redneck racer lovers in Daytona. So enjoy your weekend down here. Me? I am going to TDR!!!! Buhbye!!!

When, we have a normal winter and it gets "up" in the 20's in Jan or Feb, you might see a few convertible tops down as you're driving down the freeway!! I guess it's just our way of saying "yeah, we live here and we can take it"!!
But, it would be a bummer to have chosen this week for your much needed WDW getaway and have it that cold!
TDLFAN, can you get a trip to a warmer place until it warms up?

I guess it's a tradeoff. You guys get the warmer weather and hurricanes, we get the cold and snow.....

you got it, not far away here in Chicago , and anything above 32 degrees every in winter and you celebrate by getting the car washed to get the sheets of salt off -- and jackets are purely option above 32.

signed one of the silly (apparently) UK crowd
