    Florida is wasted on the Floridans.

    I want to vibe on a nice beach and visit the everglades and see manatees, but no it has to be CHUD California.

    2°F here

    86°F there

    Why can’t there be a place where it’s just a nice 60°F year-round?

    of course they’re using imperial but look how the burgerbrains don’t even indicate which units are being used

    EDIT: not saying like on every place on the graphic, but it needs a legend somewhere

        yeah it’s in the US, that’s why it’s sloppy and doesn’t meet standards. cheaper to hire a used car salesman instead of a meteorologist with a science education

        Damb that sounds bad. Do you have anywhere warmer to go if it gets much worse? That sounds borderline unsafe

        I’m in EAV although I don’t know much help I could be. Im in the middle of a mold remediation in a 1100 sqft little house. My kitchen is disassembled a bunch of my floor plan is in containment, boxes of stuff crammed everywhere just chaotic

        If you’re close to me and in danger of freezing please feel free to DM me and Ill see what I can do to help

          I super appreciate it, but I am north of Charlotte on the map (I don’t feel much more comfortable saying more on here). Our bedroom, which is upstairs and has 3 people in it, will probably be warm enough tonight. I am worried about Monday night being subzero though and have contacted friends to try to setup up something (assuming we can drive at all)

            If you feel like you’re in trouble and you exhausted all your other options feel free to DM me and I’ll try my best for you

    its like someone camping in the cold is leaning their cold ass over to take a hot dump (FL).

    florida isn’t a peepee. it’s a poopoo being squeezed out of the deep southern butt.
