    Fort Lauderdale warmer than Key West ?

    Fort Lauderdale warmer than Key West ?

    Thanks all indeed, cold tolerance varies (my wife always tells me that I don't know what being cold means ! ;-) ).

    Oups, my mistake.... In fact, I have leaved in Boston for 1.5 year, 20 years ago. So, it might be a reason why I still have MA engraved in my memory :confused6: ? So, I confirm I'll move to Hagerstown -> Maryland in January (MD ;)). I'll have a look at the links provided by Harry. Thank you...
