Especially those in Miami. I can't imagine anything worse than celebrating Christmas in t-shirts and shorts.

You're missing the point. T-shirts and shorts weather is okay..

That is highly subjective.

Visions of the Holidays typically include cold weather, snow, bundling up, and enjoying hot chocolate by the fire.

When it's 70+ degrees outside, it's anything but festive.

And let's not forget if you trip and stumble into a body of water in Florida, there's a fair chance a Gator will eat you until you are dead. Merry fucking christmas my ass.

When it gets cooler December to February they complain and bitch about how cold it is. Source is me as I lived in Florida for two years and as a NYer December to February was the only time I felt the weather in Florida was acceptable to be alive in.

Don't Floridians complain that it's too cold outside when it dips down to the 60's?

To me, you don't really start feeling the cold until it dips into the low 40's.

You associate the holidays with bad weather because you live in an area with bad weather. Learn how bias works.

To be honest, I'd happily shovel snow out of my driveway if it meant experiencing a White Christmas, which is how everyone envisions Christmas to be.

Warm weather during Christmas might sound pleasant, perhaps an escapism from the harsher conditions up North, but you can't tell me with a straight face that that is ideal festive weather.

People in the sunbelt, Southern Europe, Latin America, Africa, the Middle-East, Australasia (the majority of people who celebrate Christmas) absolutely do not associate it with bad weather.

Why are you bringing up other countries? Otherwise, I would've named this topic "How do people in subtropical/tropical countries or states deal with Winter weather?"

From a global perspective, I'm wiling to bet almost everyone in the world associates cold weather and snow with Christmas, regardless of your country's/state's climate.

And what you constitute as bad weather is actually representational, or suitable Holiday weather. Snow can be a drag, but there's nothing more alluring than witnessing snowfall for the very first time.

For what it's worth, I live in Florida and I generally associate it with bad weather. Just not the bad weather he's talking about. It's been a cold rain all day today.

Ok I am going to throw a counter example: if summers are not as hot as they are in Florida in your state then would it still be summer?

We still celebrate Christmas even without snow and I much prefer it that way.

Summers here are pretty brutal, but for the most part, people in the US associate Summer with warmer, hotter weather as well as going to beach.

It doesn't snow down here to the point is almost nonexistent, and I remember it being 70 degrees or so about a year or two ago. That puts a damper on the Holidays, especially if you were looking forward to wearing your favorite scarf, sweater, etc. etc.

By that reasoning if you don't have any beaches like if you live in a landlocked state or if your state have cloudy weather all the time then it wouldn't be summer.

Also Santa didn't always wear red.

Also he was a corporate invention.

Also we can still wear jackets and whatever because it can and will get down to the 30s here.

I am always good, but I'm not going to magically forget that that happened volkswagon. In fact you might want to get used to me calling you by your main because I'm not calling you by your alts, ever.

Summer is associated with warmer temperatures regardless if it's sunny or cloudy outside, that is if we're talking strictly about the US and not other parts of the world where seasons are the complete opposite (like Australia for example).

Point being, regardless if it gets cold where you live during Winter or not, colder temps. and snow still correlates to what Winter is.

Your shit adjusts and changes eventually. I grew up and lived in Massachusetts for almost 30 years. Summers my first two years here in Florida were godlessly hot. During winter though I went in my pool and was fine while everyone else thought I was crazy.

Now I work my balls off outside in Florida summer heat and it doesn't really bother me any more than summer heat up north did. Just stay more hydrated. You dont really get a spring or fall, just summer, and that kinda sucks.

Winter is funny though when you adjust. I freeze my ass off in >60 degree weather when that'd be fucking Indian summer and I'd be in shorts and a t-shirt up north.

I figured Floridians just learn to live with warm temperatures during Winter. The thing with Florida is, it's surrounded by ocean, therefore, expect a lot of humidity. I still don't know the difference between 'humid hot' and just 'dry hot'.

Florida is similar to South Texas in which it's pretty much just Summer or Spring year round. The only way you really get to experience "Winter weather" is when you get those cold fronts from up North. I just wish I lived in a state where it's consistently cold during the Winter, like anywhere up North. Here, it can be 45 degrees one day and 76 degrees the next.
