BRRRRRR!: FLORIDA'S COLDEST WINTER SINCE 1969 IS OVER!

TBO:
Records compiled by meteorologists at the National Weather Service office in Ruskin show that December, January and February — the months meteorologists consider winter — were the coldest in Tampa since 1969 and the 10th coldest since 1890 when records started here.

The blasts of icy air reached all of the state except the Keys, said Amy Godsey, state meteorologist.

Every county in Florida except in the Keys opened cold weather shelters at some point this year, she said.

"The number of Arctic outbreaks was unusual," she said. "We had 12 days in a row when much of the state was below freezing."

AGW=BS.
