I read a newspaper story that said the pythons and boas in the Everglades have figured out how to burrow into turtle holes and similar places to stay warm.  

Sooner or later, the gators will figure out how to eat them. I'm still puzzled how those snakes eat raccoons. Wild raccoons down here are large, quick, nasty and aggressive. I wouldn't think the snakes would be that fast.

Also, I'm glad I don't take canoe trips in the Glades anymore.

Our friends in Fort Lauderdale reported dead lizards. Once they're frozen, that's it. Although I suppose some might not get that cold.

I saw those lizards on the news, laying on the ground, but they said that they just got too cold to function, and came back to life when it warmed up again –

Would be nice if the cold would kill some of those huge snakes down there.

Highs in the low 50s and lows in the upper 30s in St. Pete-Tampa, enough to discourage all but the hardiest sailors.

 

But I'll be out in the Gulf on Sunday.

 

Friends in Miami-Fort Lauderdale are ecstatic because the cold snap has been enough to kill the imported iguanas and lizards that have invaded because people buy them as pets, then set them free when they get big.

 

With sustained temperatures in the 20s, they freeze and die. But now all of the vegetation in yards will go unmolested. And people aren't confronted with big lizards when they go for a walk in the parks.
