Naples, Florida doesn't have its own notes for January yet — these are about Everglades National Park, close enough to share the season.

Regulars note a cold front can knock 10-17 degrees off the typical mid-70s°F high for a few days, and flag mosquitoes as close to non-existent this time of year compared to summer, though never fully absent.
