It looks like we’ll have a record LOW today at 94*.
My parents in Florida continue to complain about how hot it is.....yet they do not believe in global warming.
It's only 73 in Central Florida right now. I always whine about the heat here, but I expect it to be hot and miserable and mostly stay indoors in the air conditioning.
The fact that it is hotter in places that should be cooler should be a clue that climate change is a thing.
We just spent a week in Orlando with heat indices over 100, a week in south Carolina with indices in the high 90s, and are going home to Colorado for actual temps of 95-98.

It is 116F at the bottom of the hill I live on so it is probably about 113F at my house. It is so hot that when I took a shower and turned on the cold water I got hot water. A/C is cranked and barely keeping the house below 78F.

It’s been in the 90’s the last few weeks in SW Florida with 80+% (90+??) humidity which makes the feel temp way worse. Plus they’re super old, have more difficulty with heat and my dad still maintains the house outside (they own about an acre).
I keep trying to explain to them how the hurricanes have been stronger and more frequent (I work in insurance so I know.....AND they fled last year from Irma and it terrified them and the neighbors who stayed..) to help them understand more than the temp explanation.....it’s pointless really.
All y'all Northern Hemisphere people do is complain about the weather. Y'all kept Winter until May, which meant those of us South of the Equator missed out on Autumn. And now that we're finally cool, y'all are doing nothing but screaming how you want it to be cooler.
No way! You have to learn to share the winter. And it's only barely winter weather here anyway. We're halfway through winter and it's only 16C today (do the math, it's good for you 😊😃). We've only been out of the teens once for a daytime high and overnight lows have been hovering around 8C all season.
Suck it up and enjoy the summer you stuck me with until May! I'm turning on my heater, pulling on a sweater and watching the grey skies drip nearly icy rain.
(Only partly joking.😃☁☔💧❄⛄)
I joke that I'm having an Australian Christmas. It's hot, and they are playing Christmas music around town for no reason I can discern.
