Kind of a big deal down there. Remember a lot of the houses aren't equipped with anything approaching a decent heat source.
You could probably go down there with a truckload of space heaters and never have to work again.

Mike I have one little cube heater on the boat. That thing is pointed at the sink in the galley to stop the pipes from freezing. The bait fish for my birds froze on the countertop a few days ago. We don't do winter well, but we don't keel over when things get to 100F and go on working.

No gators in my corner of the state. But they have them way down SE of here. And I'll take snakes, spiders, scorpions, etc... over the swarms of no-see-ums and thrips they had in Iowa.

I love KS. 110 in the summer and -20 in the winter. Crybabys don't last long here.

To me anything over 60 degrees and I start to sweat. I'll take a 20 degree day anytime. Brad

Brad, 95° is warm, but tolerable. I'll take it over 110° any day of the week.

Let’s see, southeastern states have gators, red, brown, and black widow spiders, brown recluse spiders, copperhead snakes, eastern diamondback rattlesnakes, timber rattlesnakes, pigmy rattlesnakes, and coral snakes. I would also be treading lightly around the garden and ponds (and swamps, woods and fields).

There are orange groves worth Millions that this freeze could easily damage.
