to me looks like weather wars!

Tornadoes happen when cold fronts make their way down to areas heated by the Sun. For tornadoes to hit in Florida is an example of global cooling. The cold front from the Arctic has to make its way all the way to Florida.

It's getting colder.

OMG how do people survive that area? The daily sunlight did help my depression, I felt better after I lived there for a month; but it's winter and it was to hot for me, 80 everyday but one, so I had to be inside anyway most of the time. The driving almost killed me, the way people drive and the long distances just to go somewhere. I can't even imagine trying to go out at night in that area unless it's just a short drive to your destination. It's not unusual for people to do a 100 mile round trip just to go to dinner or a nightclub, it's insane.

Ironically not a great area for serious swimmers; it's all outdoor pools and mostly leisure pools. The Gulf is not accessible in most of the area, it's swampy. You can't swim in the bays or canals, there are gators. The area is a fisherman's and boaters paradise, but not so great for swimmers. There is only one indoor pool in the entire area. The one pool I swam at was so lame and would be far to small and hot for daily living.

I just bought a full body swimsuit because I'm going back to Florida in a few days. I have to find somewhere I can survive there, which means living near an indoor or shaded lap pool. Or at least a lap pool large enough. I miss having my own lane to myself. Ironically some very small towns have enormous Olympic lap pools, so I may have to choose that. I know a small town in Georgia with a lap pool, but it's 100 miles to a larger town.

I grew up in sw florida and its changed a lot . We swam in the bays and canals and I still would if I lived ther full time. We eat alligators .

I agree on the traffic. I like rural ohio better, we have huge indoor pools here .

Sounds good but yeah true! Tornados are so common here and not usually horrible unless you're in a trailer which is just stupid. Honestly I slept thru the worst of it until my mom woke me up. Even slept thru the alarms. I had a tornado near me Christmas eve I think it was. We still went out and delivered mail in it. Had to case mail in the dark with a headlamp because it knocked the power out. Few years ago had an F1 literally hit down the street from me few houses down at 10pm. Just took out a guys garage. I slept thru it. Didn't lose power.

Yeah. I’m in the cape and we just got a second emergency alert for Tornadoes until 9:30am.
Looks like it hit Ft Myers the worst but it’s not over yet.
The emergency alert says to leave mobile homes and cars and go to strong shelter or basements.
There are no basements here!
the mobile home areas here are massive. Many of them have nowhere to go. Unless they have opened some of the schools which I doubt.

Do they still build houses of concrete block there? That should be pretty safe, might lose the roof but the walls would stand.
