2018-01-06 02:55 50 °F few clouds

from the link above but in super long form: http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/weather/maps/city?LANG=en&CEL=F&SI=mph&TIME=std&CONT=mamk&LAND=CU®ION=0020&WMO=78224&R=0&LEVEL=140&NOREGION=1&SORT=__&TEMP=___&WETTER=__&&TYP=__&SEITE=0

Man, I know the Cubans are bitching up a storm huddled in their warmest clothes drinking their black coffee!!!!

ETA: For those who want the full context, read this please: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Havana#Climate

Average low for January for Havana is 65.5F...... so 50 is really damn cold for them.

A helpful map of Havana Cuba

https://www.google.com/maps/place/Havana,+Cuba/@23.5793386,-82.848216,6.67z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x88cd774cbdf600e1:0x4e294d7e1a770d60!8m2!3d23.1135925!4d-82.3665956

Havana is IN THE TROPICS.....Key West misses being in the tropics by a few miles.

23.08 North Latitude, 82.23 West Longitude....TROPICS.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropic_of_Cancer

The Tropic of Cancer, also referred to as the Northern Tropic, is currently 23°26?13.0? (or 23.43695°) north of the Equator. It is the most northerly circle of latitude on Earth at which the Sun can be directly overhead. This occurs on the June solstice, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun to its maximum extent.[1]

come on, anyone who knows anything about CUBA knows it is a) 90 miles SOUTH of Key West which is the one of the very farthest SOUTH places in the USA, b) ALWAYS FREAKING WARM/HOT or at least mild, and c) definitely tropical.

Good lord. Please don't respond to me any more, thank you kindly.
