Typhoon Lagoonisney waterpark in Orlando,Fl
Blizzard Beach: Disney waterpark in Orlando,Fl
Aquatica:Sea World waterpark in Orlando,Fl
Wet n Wildwned by Universal located on International Drive Orlando,Fl
Adventure Island:Busch Gardens waterpark in Tampa,Fl
Rapids waterpark:waterpark in Riviera Beach,Fl by West Palm Beach
Daytona Lagoon: Daytona Beach,Fl
Wild Waters waterpark: Silver Springs,Fl
Shipwreck Island: Panama City,Fl
I think there's also some smaller waterparks in Jacksonville and in Southwest Florida as well as the waterpark where Cypress Gardens was located in Winter Haven that will open again when it becomes Legoland next year.

As far as which are the best both Disney parks are obviously great as well as Aquatica,Wet n Wild has very good slides but less theming than the Aquatica or the Disney ones.Aventure Island is also good,Rapids has some good slides but is not as nice or big as the previous ones I've mentioned.I haven't been to the other ones so I can't comment on them.I have walked by the one in Cypress Gardens/Legoland but on a non operating day and it's not very big,maybe when Legoland reopens it it'll be expanded.As far as the weather February is one of the coldest months of the year,if this next February has similar weather to this year there won't be many waterpark days.If you're from a cold weather climate then there could be some days when the highs get into the 70's and you should be fine,but there could be days when the highs are only in the 40's or 50's so you just don't know what you're going to get.

The big water parks in Orlando are two Disney parks: Typhoon Lagoon (located off Buena Vista Drive near Downtown Disney) and Blizzard Beach (also located on Buena Vista Drive but near where the road intersects with Osceola Parkway near the Animal Kingdom theme park, and just down the road from the Coronado Springs Resort); also there's Wet 'n Wild on International Drive at its intersection with Universal Boulevard; and Aquatica on International Drive across from, and run by, SeaWorld.

Generally, one of the Disney water parks will be closed for refurbishment during February.

There's also a waterpark called Adventure Island that's across and just up the street from Busch Gardens in Tampa. And there's also a water park called Wild Waters that, if I recall correctly, is located next to Silver Springs on route 40. Likely others in the state but those are the Florida water parks that come to mind.
