I went there twice in my lifetime, east coast in October west coast in June. I almost died when I got out of my airconditioned van. If somebody gave me a free home in Fla, to live in, I would pass on it. I wouldn’t live there for free.
I hate heat and humidity. Its very stifling and depressing for me. If I had my way, I’d leave Long Island every July and August and have a second home in Old Orchid beach Maine near the coast. Indoors with AC on you feel closed in. You can’t go outside and do anything. Then getting in the car?? Holy moly, its a 140+ in there.
But in the winter with the heat on you never feel closed in, and you can go outside and do things. Just put a hat and coat on. 🙂
