Iguanas are falling from trees, and residents are digging out scarves, hats and sweaters.

One reason why the morning hours felt so cold, according to a Twitter post by the National Weather Service in Melbourne, was because of the wind chill.

Fort Pierce, for example, had a 31-degree wind chill and Stuart recorded a 35-degree wind chill.

Egads!

So, yes, it's cold in Florida and, as usual, Twitter is not having it.

Here are a few of the best #FloridaWinter memes from the social media platform:

South Florida is waking up to cold temperatures and iguanas falling from the sky. Might as well make him comfy with blankie and hat while he thaws out. #FloridaWinter #iguana pic.twitter.com/1w1cgtZ8vx
