On rare occasions it can get into the lowers 40s. But that's rare. Most winters only get to about 52 to 54 degrees.
In South Carolina, where I grew up, it got into the lower 20s and I loved it.
My sister lives very near you- she's in Ft. Lauderdale. She grows orchids outdoors all year and I've been to visit and SEEN the iguanas and curl tail lizards y'all have! Not to mention the parrots in the trees!!!! :)
...but your SUMMERS!!!!!!! They get MIGHTY HOT!!!!! And I won't even mention the "H" word!;)

We have all sorts of exotics. And it all gets old pretty fast.
Fort Lauderdale is just east of me.

Would a big iguana be a threat to Suki????
@ZEROPILOT
She's afraid of everything.
She used to chase butterflies and bees until she got stung....Twice.
Now she is less adventurous.
An adult iguana is usually unafraid of anything. But probably wouldn't try to make a snack out of Suki.
(They DO eat meat)
