Answer:

The correct answer is They are warmer than expected in winter.

Explanation:

During summer, ocean water absorbs a huge amount of heat and store it for a long time. During winter, ocean water already has the heat stored, and it takes months to lose it. Therefore, the ocean temperature drops more slowly than the land temperature during winter. For this reason, the climate in coastal regions of Florida is warmer than expected in winter.
