Heading south the middle of the winter from upstate NY

This is our second trip to Florida during the week of Christmas. Last year Falling Waters State Park. This year St. Joeseh State Park. Like you, two years in a row when we made the reservation we had no idea on weather conditions in Indiana for this week. We had a contengency plan in the event so snow at home when planning to leave....trip canceled and just forefoot our reservation. So far Santa has been good with the weather. You just have to plan on a contengency.
