I adapted to the heat the first summer I moved here (northern FL). I have lived in other places with hot climates, and frankly I could do without the “cool” winters—just give me the heat year-round.
I always hated summer in Florida but then 11 years ago I started spending my vacations in Viet Nam. There it is July/August like in Pensacola from March through October then it is April the rest of the time. I am more often there in the summer than in the “winter.” The people there freeze when the temperature goes below 80 in January and February.
I’d prefer a happy medium, I guess; I hate the winters here more each year, but not enough to burn in too much heat.
