Central Idea: Florida has crazy weather, family oriented activities and Adults only activities.
Introduction
I. Imagine leaving your home with your family on a beautiful Saturday Morning in FL. You and your family are going to Walt Disney World and then later that night you and your spouse are planning to have an adult night on the town at the City Walk. Then all of sudden rainy weather comes out of nowhere and ruin your plans.
II. This has happened to me and my friends on several occasions while we were living in Florida. It was nerve reckoning not knowing what the weather would be like at any giving time when wanted to spend time with our families or just have an adult only night and watching the weather channel didn’t help much.
III. We learned to just bring an umbrella just in case the skies decided to open up for no apparent reason.

Body
I. Florida is known as the “Sunshine State” and typically you will experience a perfect day in Florida.

In the summer you will typically experience thunderstorms, more so in the evenings. 2. Thunderstorms are very pretty but quick and able to drop inches of rain in very short periods.
B. Winter in Florida is so far the only place I’ve been that I’m wearing short and skirts during the time where the rest of the US is bundled up. 1. Florida is sunny during the winter. 2. During the morning when the wind is coming out of the East it can get a little nippy but usually by lunchtime it warms up usually in the high 70’s to 80’s.
