Hey Crosstitch, you live in a really not part of the state.
Right in the middle, no ocean breezes, central Florida can get really hot. I have a sister in Orlando, I'm down there quite a bit. I live in Jax, 12 miles from the beach, so we actually do get a good breeze most days, even this far inland, (except this has been one of those exceptionally hot summers) but you cross the river into the west side of town and it will be 10 degrees hotter in the summer.
