...there have been appx ~49 severe prolonged cold events in Florida from 1765 till 2016. There were 21 prolonged arctic events in Florida during the 20th Century (1900 to 2000); frequency: every ~4.7 years. And, during the 21st Century, there have been 10 prolonged arctic events over the 16 years; frequency: every ~1.6 years :E So, that leaves 18 severe cold events in Florida from 1765 to 1899; frequency: every ~7.4 years. So, it appears very evidently that exceptional cold spells in Florida are becoming very more frequent!
1765 to 1899: frequency every ~7.4 years
1900 to 2000: frequency every ~4.7 years
2001 to 2016: frequency every ~1.6 years (but extrapolating till 2050, ~3.0)
2017 to 2030: little ice age ? :p
Whenever Florida experiences "arctic cold fronts" that last for weeks (and sometimes more than a month), believe me, the entire central and eastern USA are experiencing much worse cold, too; but Alaska and the far north are very markedly warmer than average. We're going to snowbird in Alaska LOL! :B
