When do the snowbirds migrate back to their northern homes?
Right after Easter.
They should be starting in a week or so.
When we homeschooled, we'd go visit my in-laws in late April and early May and it was always wonderful.
It was not very crowded because many of the snowbirds had left already and many were in process.
And since spring break was long since over, it was nice and quiet and we had the beach pretty much to ourselves.
So, yeah, the spring break crowd is long gone, and there's a pause and then the snow birds. Just in time to get back and sick and find out that the spring break crowd beat them here and are just starting to overload the hospitals with active cases of COVID because of the incubation period.
Honestly, the hospitals in FL are good at dealing with critical cases as they have so many because of the senior population so it might be worth them to stay longer.
Excepting for the complicating little detail of all the NY downstaters heading there and likely carrying the virus with them.
So the spring breakers and snowbirds are coming north, taking it with them.
And the NYC folks are heading for the south, taking that with them.
I guess there's nowhere safe.
Might be a good time to stock up before the next wave hits.
