It's strange, the Gulf Coast and inland, in terms of who gets X amount of temperatures and for how long. I recall hearing that it got down to 13 in Fairhope the morning it got down to 18 in Mandeville. And that's with the wind coming down Mobile Bay even! It is very shallow on that side though.

I would think in Tallahassee it's a bit cooler overall. But cold is cold when the wind is right and the Gulf and various bodies of water have no influence whatsoever as far as radiant heat. Afterall, 18 degrees on the shore of Lake Pontchartrain is 18 degrees.
