You know a cold front has hit the South when these 5 things happen

When chilly weather moves through the coastal South , locals usually fall into one of two camps: those who cannot stand the cold, and those who cannot wait to break out their one pair of boots. Either way, a drop in temperature always causes a stir throughout the region, and sometimes bizarre behavior. Here are five signs the coastal South is going through a cold front. Shorts and puffer jackets Unlike folks up north who are used to bundling up, many Southerners don't know how to dress for chilly temperatures. Which is why you might see some odd combinations of warm and cold weather clothing - like socks and flip-flops or shorts and puffer jackets. Falling iguanas THUMP! Floridians know the familiar sound of frozen iguanas falling out of trees. These pervasive reptiles are a common sight, especially in South Florida, and when temperatures drop below 50˚F, they become stunned by the cold, and can drop to the ground.

VR tool reveals how sea level rise could swamp Fort Lauderdale

As sea levels rise and weather patterns change, low-lying, coastal South Florida is likely to see flooding that becomes more frequent and severe . Parts of Fort Lauderdale, which has been affected by such events in recent years, are especially vulnerable. Researchers at Florida Atlantic University have developed a virtual reality simulation that models the possible future effects of flooding in the city, portraying the potential combined effects of king tides , regular storms and various feet of sea level rise. The simulation provides the viewer with a slider to raise and lower possible flood levels — various stages show even inland neighborhoods largely inundated. "The point of the VR is to take these very complex calculations and put them into a format that people can understand, and also relate to," Serena Hoermann, director for the Center for Urban and Environmental Solutions at FAU, who spearheaded the project, told the USA TODAY Network. The model demonstrates " illustrative scenarios, not predictions ," she said in the release. King tides may provide glimpse into possible future flooding Parts of South Florida have repeatedly been inundated recently due to king tides, and, according to Miami-Dade County , the annual flooding is only
