How cold does it get in Miami? The lowest temperature ever recorded in Miami was 27 degrees in February 1917, but no one remembers that, and there was hardly anyone here then. The amount of snow was so small it did not become part of the official weather record, but people are still talking about that snowy January in Miami more than 40 years later. We do not expect temperatures below 50 and, in fact, it does not freeze in Miami, though a few snow flurries were reported on January 19, 1977. That is what Miami winter weather is supposed to be – like spring and fall everywhere else. In February, those numbers are 78 and 62. The average high temperature in January in Miami is 76, and the average low is 62. The longer you've been here, the worse your Miami winter wardrobe looks, unless you keep it updated for frequent trips to New York. The rest of us are cobbling together a motley winter wardrobe from thrift-store finds and sweaters we bought 20 years ago. Recent arrivals who moved to Miami with a stylish winter wardrobe acquired in colder climates enjoy the chance to show off their Ugg boots and fur-trimmed coats. Don't use charcoal heaters or charcoal grills indoors, because they can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. The fireplaces in older homes are good for heat, as long as they are clean and the flue is open (yes, we learned this from personal experience) – and you are awake to watch them. The Consumer Product Safety Commission advises against using power strips and extension cords with space heaters. Space heaters are a good option, but you shouldn't run them when you're asleep. Some homes in Miami don't have heat at all, and many years they don't miss it. Some window air conditioning units may have a "reverse cycle," which provides heat. If you have central air conditioning, you have central heat, but it doesn't work very well. It's not as if we can turn on the furnace because there are no furnaces. Those concrete block walls and tile floors are great in the summer, but make everything feel colder during those Miami winter months. It doesn't help that Florida homes and buildings are constructed to stay cool. This is not because "our blood gets thinner" – that explanation has no scientific basis – but our expectation about what feels cold certainly changes – drastically. You may think 55 and sunny is glorious weather and it's time to put your winter gear in storage, but Miami residents and any long-time Floridians (as in, anyone who has lived here longer than six months) are wearing overcoats, boots, and earmuffs to walk their dogs. Police haven't released any information about the third suspect.If you've just moved to Miami from New York or Montana or somewhere else that has a real winter, you are probably extremely amused by how Floridians handle a cold snap – like, when the temperature goes below 60. When detectives searched the Porsche they found two pairs of gloves, including one that matched the ones De La Noval Lopez was wearing in the surveillance footage, the report said.Īccording to the report, cellphone data also showed De La Noval Lopez in the area of the mall during the burglary. Sanchez denied being at the scene but said his Porsche was there and said he'd let De La Noval Lopez borrow it, the report said. Police began surveillance on De La Noval Lopez, who was spotted driving the same Porsche that was seen in the surveillance video from the Macy's burglary, the report said.Īn eyewitness who said he'd been sleeping in his car in the parking lot identified Sanchez as the driver of a dark colored sedan that served as a lookout, the report said. Surveillance footage showed the thieves in the parking lot inside a silver Porsche and white van before the burglary, and leaving the scene afterwards with a sedan, the report said.Īfter the surveillance footage was released to the media, police received multiple anonympus tips identifying one of the suspects as De La Noval Lopez, with one tipster saying he drives a silver Porsche, the report said.

The thieves focused on the jewelry and fragrance sections, stealing more than $1.5 million worth of goods before leaving the store just before 5 a.m., the report said.
