Who Has It Worse?

It was six above as I pulled in the garage. We've haven't bottomed out quite yet. Last night was comparably cold.

I walked in the house and it was warm. Sure, I'm burning twenties in the furnace, but it's comfy here. We are equipped to deal with New England winters.

Let me contrast that with Florida.

RECORD EVENT REPORT NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE 455 PM EST THU JAN 03 2008

...BELIEVE IT OR NOT...
...RECORD DAILY MAXIMUM SNOWFALL SET AT DAYTONA BEACH...

A FEW SNOW FLURRIES WERE REPORTED ALONG THE VOLUSIA COUNTY COAST
FROM AROUND 7 AM TO 930 AM THIS MORNING. A BRIEF FLURRY OCCURRED AT
THE OFFICAL CLIMATE SITE...THE DAYTONA BEACH INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.
THE RESULT OF THIS FLURRY IS A RECORD SNOWFALL OF A TRACE. THIS OF
COURSE PILED HIGHER THAN THE OLD RECORD FOR THIS DATE OF NONE.
2001.

NWS record reports usually don't come with humor. Obviously, tonight in the East, none come with warmth.
