More Record Cold In Florida

[Thomas F. Giella NZ4O]

Monday morning January 11, 2010 dawned very cold for the state of Florida 
once again with quite a few new minimum temperature records set. Minimum 
temperatures this morning were 5-10 degrees colder than yesterday morning. 
For most locations this is the coldest weather since 2000 and in some cases 
1996.

For those that might be interested most of the data was culled from
