Surviving the COLD in Florida

Layer Up Like an Onion
Wear every piece of clothing you own. Hoodies over sweaters over t-shirts. Socks on socks. Fashion doesn't matter when hypothermia (read: mild discomfort) is at stake.
Stockpile Hot Beverages
Coffee, tea, hot cocoa—drink them like your life depends on it. Extra points if you clutch the mug dramatically while staring out a frosty window.
Emergency Blanket for Your Car
Just in case you have to drive somewhere, bring a blanket and maybe a heater. It’s a treacherous world out there when the A/C stops being your biggest worry.
Use Your Pool as an Ice Skating Rink
It's finally too cold to swim! Convert your pool into an ice skating rink... or just put on skates and pretend. Florida style.
Don’t Forget to Protect the Iguanas
When it gets "cold," iguanas might fall from trees. Keep a helmet handy just in case they pick your yard for their nap.
Turn Your Oven into a Heater
Bake cookies or pastries non-stop. It's not just for warmth—it’s survival food. Plus, it makes your house smell amazing.
Declare It a Snow Day
Schools may stay open, but you can still call out of work because of “unsafe conditions.” Roads are fine, but what about your flip-flops?
Hot Shower Marathon
Stand in a hot shower for hours. You'll save on heating the house and get that spa treatment you deserve.
Wrap Your Palm Trees in Scarves
Your tropical greenery deserves protection too. Bonus: It's a great Instagram opportunity.
Stay Indoors Until Spring
If all else fails, just don’t go outside. Netflix, snacks, and a blanket fort are the ultimate cold-weather survival kit. Who needs the sun anyway?

Remember, Florida: you've got this. Just make sure to leave the house before it hits 75°F again. Stay strong! 🧣☕
