When I moved to JAX it rained every day my first summer at 4pm. You could set your watch by it. Winters are generally dry as a bone because the rain is caused by moisture pushing in from the ocean or the Gulf, then heating up over hot summer land masses. My first winter, the state was on fire because of no rain.

It is generally true, if you dont like the weather in Florida, wait a minute.

Especially when his utilities on his "compound" running in the thousands of dollars each month. He uses more energy in one month as I do in one year! He needs to use some of those carbon credits to offset his own consumption, not saving them to make a fortune if his agenda goes forward. What a scumbag.
