Right now, temperatures in The Villages and Edwardsville are somewhat similar.

Is this typical weather here? Or an anomaly?
Typical for "north central" Florida. If one is looking for warm temps for say 360 days per year....you would need to head down South Florida. We moved up here after over 25 years in South Florida. On many occasions there can be a 15 to 20 degree difference on the "colder" side. For example, as I type this it's 53 in TV and 69 in Coral Springs where we came up from.
