I agree on last winter. No matter how you sugar coat it 2009-2010 winter was not very Florida-like, I was glad to have some winter clothes. To be honest 2008-2009 was not what we expected either. 2010-2011 winter on the other hand was awesome and everything we thought it would be and more when buying a place in north central FL.

If you have never experienced 55 with a 15 MPH NE wind in TV, you will be shocked. It does not feel like what you think 55 should feel like, so keep a few items to keep you warm .....
