So yes summer tires can be good in rain (obviously it rains in summer) but in Florida compared to Washington your average temperature is probably 20+ degrees, a lot warmer where summer tires have maximum performance but don't do so well in colder weather. I would love to run summer tires but not many people do around here unless they have dedicated summer and dedicated winter tires they can swap every 6 months.

Here in Canada we run winter tires for like 7 months and summer tires for 5 months.
