Karen MacGrogan recalls record cold snaps and winters from Western Pennsylvania to Florida. She remembers sledding on hills, ice skating by a pond, fogged windows, and the cold bringing smiles and misery before moving to Florida where winter still bites.
The writer recalls Florida winters vs harsher northern seasons. She shares memories of February lake hair washing, Christmas photos by hibiscus, and a snow igloo with friends in New Jersey. Ice storms, icy windshields, and a preference for warm climes frame a light personal essay.
A reflective travelogue-style piece compares winter Northeasters in New England to South Florida squalls and hurricanes, notes the beauty and power of storms, and recalls a Colorado Springs trip near the Rockies. It blends weather descriptions with personal memories and vivid imagery.
