You might be interested in this 4-minute video featuring Deke Arndt of the National Centers for Environmental Information on the Weather Underground Facebook page. In it, he discusses how the seasons are warming across the US. In the Southeast, winter is the season that is warming the most, and is also getting drier. In the video he discusses the consequences of the warming, including reduced chill hours for fruit, more overwintering of insect pests and diseases, and changes in the length of the growing season. I can’t embed the video here so you might have to scroll down their page at https://www.facebook.com/wunderground/ to see the video.
