You poor Floridians...

...having to endure this -

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

I know one global warming skeptic down there who will find the event encouraging.
I'm also thankful that NOAA specified that this occurred at "930 AM this morning" so as to distinguish it from 930 AM in the evening....

  1. The extreme cold weather in South Florida brought about an unexpected phenomenon: iguanas were dropping out of the trees en masse!

    When the temperature falls below a certain level, the large green lizards drop out of the trees and litter the ground. […]

    It was raining iguanas at Bill Baggs Thursday morning. There were a couple underneath buttonwood trees and a third beneath a sea grape. All were about 30 yards from the beach, in the coastal hammock.

    ”We have found dozens on the bike path after a major cold snap,” said Yero. “When they warm up in the sun, they come back to life.”

    (found in Neatorama)
