Just what you get used to after a couple of years.

A lot of us grew up in cold climates and did just fine. However, we are now in Florida and have gotten used to the warm weather and do not tolerate the cold anymore.

It does make me wonder, however, on the reverse side how someone who has never been in a cold climate would acclimate to the the cold. Case in point - Lutheran World Relief in Minnesota has relocated many refugees from Mali and Somalia to Minneapolis and St. Paul. How do those people survive their first winters in the sub-zero temperatures of a Minnesota winter?
