South Floridians enjoy cooler weather as temperatures drop

After beating the heat in South Florida, cold air is pushing the temperature down on Saturday, and several residents are enjoying the cooler weather.

All day here in Margaret Pace Park, dozens of people enjoyed the outdoors.

Children were seen playing in the grass and shooting hoops on the basketball court, while others went on walks, runs and even sat on benches by the water.

NBC6 spoke to several people who enjoyed the change in weather.

“I like it when it’s colder,” Adam said.

“It’s cool, we need to figure out new things,” Mike said. “Now, can’t go to the beach, can’t go to the pool.”

Now that the sun has gone down, it’s definitely more chilly.

If you’re heading out, make sure to grab a little coat or a sweater.
