The part of Florida I live in (Tampa) is amazingly temperate considering the 
climate.  From October to April our daytime temperatures are typically in the 
law 70s with low humidity.  From May through September it's hot, topping out in 
the low 90s with moderate humidity.

One of the things people don't understand is that it doesn't get "Arizona" hot 
here - a 95 degree day would be unusual.  Yes, it's humid in the summer, but I 
will say that's it's not the soaking wet pour me into a bucket humid like it is 
in the Midwest.  We have a nice Gulf breeze that blows most days which tempers 
the humidity a great deal.

I do miss four distinct seasons, especially fall, but not enough that I would 
ever consider returning north of the Mason-Dixon Line.  Or the Florida state 
line, for that matter.
