^ Neither would I. The coldest I would go is probably in the 40's...

Test Track was COLD today. I think the high was 46, and we rode when it was 40-ish. We got up to 64.8 MPH though!

Haha...you better believe it. I played a round of golf today in Florida...in shorts...when it was like...50 with 123849823475038947 mph winds. To make this post less spam-ish, I had to put on gloves when I rode Mantis once so my hands didn't, like, freeze to the handlebars.

^ Yeah if I had to be frozen to a coaster a standing one wouldn't be my first choice!

Yeah it gets cold in Florida! The World Showcase at EPCOT was horrible! It was so windy. There was this one gust that lasted for at least 20 seconds. Disgusting.
^^You should go to Universal today. My mother won't ride anything involving water with me.

Oh no, 50 with 123849823475038947 mph winds must be HORRIBLE! You're preaching to someone who had to deal with a high of 15 degrees and a wind chill below zero the other day. I'd love some 50 degree weather about now. And riding coasters in the cold is pretty sucky. I rode Boss when it was cold one time and I came back with watery eyes... everyone must have thought I was crying!

High today is 48. It gets cold in California too!
I just can't picture it getting cold in Florida. That's so random. I thought it was always warm there.

Now Hawaii is a place that never gets cold. We were there over Christmas 2 years ago and it was 70-80 the entire time. Now I could live with that!

He's not saying that 50 is freezing, he's saying that 50 is pretty cold for Florida.
Inside the Mummy building today was probably <55. So technically I rode Mummy in the cold! It was really bad up front where noone's there to block it!

^ That's weird I don't remember it being cold at all when I rode it, except for the plunge into the cold mist at the end.

^I don't think it's usually that cold. It wasn't last January. And that mist isn't anything NEAR as freezing cold as Hulk's under-the-bridge mist! That stuff was horrible!

The worst expreance I have ever had on a coaster was at the point. There was crazy weather all day, and when I was on MF, it started to HAIL! When I got back into the station, I had welts. Btw, Phantom's Revenge in 38 degree weather is sweet! Just were your Steeler winter jacket
