I have lived in Florida 40+ years. Most of the time, the weather is great and you do not need sweaters and jackets. It seems when there is an El Niño, it brings colder weather to Florida. After reading about Anchorage in early November, my wife and I dug out our hats, scarves, gloves, and warm socks. We are hoping we will not need them but have learned to be prepared. If January and February are unusually cold, it is difficult to find items to keep you warm. The stores sell out of them, quickly. With La Niña, it seems to bring more rain and more hurricanes.

Don't hold this as gospel truth. Mother Nature does as she wishes. My experience has been that most years are quite pleasant.
