The report of a 29 degree high in Miami may be incorrect, Most other sources cite it as the low temperature in miami, not the high (But still the coldest ever reached there) 129.21.140.12 06:34, 8 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The high of 29 for Miami is definitely incorrect. According to the archived NOAA daily weather maps from this event, the high temperatures at Jupiter, FL (to the north of Miami along Florida's east coast) on the 14th and 15th were 64 and 58, respectively, along with low temperatures of 22 and 30, respectively. Refer to http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/dwm/1899/18990214.djvu and http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/dwm/1899/18990215.djvu This would be consistent with a LOW temperature of 29 at Miami, which would experience more modified temperatures compared to Jupiter.
