It's a little bit better than guessing or having no idea.

But yea, not an exact science this far out.

I like winter to be honest.

The most state-specific form of death in South Dakota is sitting with your back to the door while playing poker.

People in the south have this crippling fear of cold weather like it’s ****ing torturous when they’re being advised by weather agencies to stay inside for 1-2 weeks every summer because of the extreme heat.

“Just drink water” you say? Okay. Then just wear a ****ing coat. It’s not hard.


It doesn't get hot enough in Florida for heat advisories. At least not that I've seen.

That sounds like more of a desert thing, like in Arizona and Texas.

I wouldn’t mind them moving the game to New Orleans. I’m excited about this game since it could potentially be the last Brady-Mahomes matchup, but if my vacation changes from Tampa to New Orleans it opens up the weekend to a lot more fun. Aside from the potential big Red Friday party on the beach there is nothing that excites me about visiting Tampa for a weekend.

I can function in crippling heat. Change a flat, play with the kids outside, etc.

When it’s cold, that shit sucks ASS. Smashed knuckles, frozen water lines, gelled diesel, etc. Kids are stuck inside being lazy assholes thanks to -20 wind chill.

Hopefully in before....

The hurricanes are worse because of climate change.

Florida gets a hurricane because of DeSantis.




Do what you can to prepare all cp members. Never been in one. Don't want to.

Yeah, if you know how you dress yourself, the cold really isn't that bad. It's the humidity you can't escape if you're outside.

It's a ways out from where I'm at but the ocean here is as flat as a pancake. Beautiful!

Hope that CP member from Florida who's always bashing on California is staying safe if there is a Hurricane.

Earthquakes out here ain't no joke though. :D

Even if someone can’t afford a place to live there, at least the weather is nice for when they are homeless.

How many times has Florida been devastated by hurricanes? How many of those have resulted in significant power outages for large numbers of people? Why hasn't Florida "fixed the grid" to deal with a recurring weather phenomenon?

I never lost power once, but this was the longest and hottest heat wave on record in California. Over 1000 heat records were broken. This is a much more rare weather phenomenon than hurricanes in Florida, why aren't you calling out your own state?

San Diego has the best weather in the country. You should move to FL.

The few times I've been to FL I enjoyed what the state had to offer. Seems like a nice place minus the Hurricane stuff.

Typical Floridians are amusing. There are some nice things about FL, but it doesn't hold a candle to SoCal.

Take that shit to DC.
