Current Event January 11, 2010
When you think of Florida, you see a beautiful, warm, sunny day all year round. The days during the summer can be a bit too hot but it makes a perfect day to go to the beach. During the winter, it feels perfect because it isn’t too hot or too cold. Florida is one of the few places in the US where it is warm during the winter.
But recently, Mother Nature decided change things around a bit. The temperature in Florida has drop drastically and can cause a major problem especially for people who love to eat oranges. Orange trees have to stay in warm weather to survive. If the temperature drops to about 30 or lower and lasts for about more than 4 hours, the trees may not survive. Unfortunately, the temperature has dropped down to about 25 degrees so this will cause problems. This has never really happened before and many people are shocked by this.
This also affects iguanas a lot. When the temperature drops like it did yesterday, they become paralyzed and fall off where they are hanging on. Poor iguanas.
