We find that since we are there all winter, we don't care all that much when it's cold for a week or so - we know it won't last and you won't be shoveling snow. Different than when you go to Florida for a week on vacation and hit a cold snap.
That said, if I were only going to come for let's say, Jan-March, I might look further south as of course central Florida is colder than South Florida. Last winter, we had about 5 hard freezes (below freezing at night for about 3 nights in a row each time). The year before was worse, and the year before that wasn't great either. I think the last 3 winters were all colder than normal, but who knows, maybe it's the "new normal."
Of course, it starts to get really hot in South Florida a couple of weeks either side in spring and fall, and even hotter in the summer, if you are a frog.

Thank you. Hey it beats snow and sliding in freezing rain. We can probably handle this.
