I followed TV weather everyday for 2 weeks this summer. There is no way to sugarcoat central FL summer weather, it’s rough. As I did for the 10yrs I lived in the area, we cope :-)

That sounds about right and fairly representative of a summer day in central Florida. It is what it is.
Back in the late 1960's an aunt and uncle moved from Towson, MD to Winterhaven, FL (where Publix opened its first store) and lived there for over 30 years. Winterhaven is a bit south of TV. I used to visit them there rather frequently as I owned some commercial property in Lakeland and I needed to visit it several times a year. I remember it being surprisingly chilly in those towns in January and February as well.
