Wintering on the south coast

This is our 2nd winter on the MS gulfcoast. It depends on the year. Last winter (0ur 1st) was very cold with an ice storm. Everyone said it was so unusual, so we came back to try it again. So far this winter has been much much better. We get nice sunny weather, then it rains, then cold front for a few days, then sunny and warm again - seems to be a cycle. Better than anyplace else we have been to yet, but we want to try them all. We do love this area though.
