Default Weather & Arthritis

I am fairly new TOTV. We have a few years yet before we retire but are starting to look at options for when we do. We live in Wisconsin and are early 50's. I have been having problems with my hips for nine years from carrying mail for 25. My doctor tells me I will have a weather hip and when I asked what that means he says "you'll know". As soon as this winter - damp cold weather comes in - I now know what he is getting at. Just wondering if anyone out there has moved from the cold winter climates to TV and noticed a change in how their arthritis feels when staying down in Florida. Has it helped with the aches and pains??? I know people who have moved to Arizona and it made a world of difference. Just wondering...may help us decided where we want to be during winters.
