Local SWFL weather said it's supposed to be a warmer, drier winter as a result of La Nina. But they also said it'll be the 3rd La Nina in a row, and last year we got below freezing a couple times. I hope for no freezes and frost.
I skimmed over what you linked to, Orkine, and think this is the applicable part to us:
"The Southeast will experience some shivers, especially during the month of January. Fortunately, for the snowbirds, February will likewise warm the region to near-normal winter season temperatures overall."
Not sure what qualifies as "shivers", but the above kinda sounds like last winter.
