Amazing weather
 

I guess this is Indian summer.
We've had three sunny days in a row, with temps around 24 or 25 (celcius, eh) each day, and tomorrow they're calling for 26.

Just gorgeous. :bojump:

California needs a dimmer. :mad:

Seasons would be nice, too. I miss seasons.

I've go so many favorites that I may never need to type again, a blessing for some ;)

Re: Amazing weather
 

I like your typing. :)

This is a "regular" little guy, but still a fave: :clapping:

He's just so gosh darned happy! :okthumb:

I don't think I would want to live anywhere that didn't have 4 distinct seasons, although winter could be a tad shorter.

Re: Amazing weather
 

We had seasons when I was staioned in San Diego.

For example, we decided we needed to have a snowball fight on Christmas morning. We drove about two hours into the mountains, had our little snowball fight, and went back and bbq'd a turkey.

Re: Amazing weather
 

Fair point.
You're never really more than a drive away from whatever season you want to see here.
I get a giggle every year out of the people who drive up the mountain to "see snow" only to be immediately stuck in it.

Re: Amazing weather
 

I can do without seasons. I grew up with winter. I'm perfectly happy to just look at a picture of snow while sitting under the palm trees.

Re: Amazing weather
 

Louisiana sucks when it comes to changing seasons too.. I WANT A WINTER!!

Re: Amazing weather
 

Tell me that after you have to dig your car out from under the snow pile that the plow covered it with.

Or sliding sideways across the ice and landing on someone's front lawn.

God, I hate driving in winter.

Last year was such a shitty winter here in Philly, I really didn't want to see another.

Then we had the hottest, must friggen humid summer here in at least two decades. :(

I don't mind four seasons if they were only in moderation. But of late it's been the opposite.

After this miserable summer, I can't say I am looking for winter even. Something mild would be nice. But this whole "extremes" thing is getting majorly on my nerves.:ranting:

I think at some point in the future I'm either going to need two houses in two climates that I can switch off with ... or find someplace like San Diego or San Francisco or somewhere else (?) where it's more moderate.

Re: Amazing weather
 

Even though Nick and Newton paint the North East as black, I can say that we get warm summers, cold winters, cool autumn's and refreshing springs. It doesn't suck up here, but sometimes the people do...

Re: Amazing weather
 

If you go for San Diego, make certain that you are actually *in* San Diego, as close to the beach as your life savings will allow you to purchase.
I'm in East San Diego County...and it's in the 90's.
We have "microclimates," a concept of which I'd never even heard before we moved here.

Re: Amazing weather
 

I've never painted it as black :) I can think of lots of other words lol

Re: Amazing weather
 

The winters here in Montreal aren't as bad as people let on. The permanent snow starts end-December and then it's a white world until about mid-March.

Sure we get 2 or 3 bad blizzards, but snow removal here is as quick and professional as it is anywhere in the world. Car buried?? Never happens. What gets to you about the cold weather is having to put on a big coat and boots every time you go out.

The rest is easy... and actually enjoyable.

Re: Amazing weather
 

I'm sure you can lol. ;)

Re: Amazing weather
 

That's a filthy lie and you know it.

All of you who want winter, come and take it away, it's all yours.

what Chris doesnt mention is the 30 to 60 days of limb loosing temperature we get... 5 minutes outside and you loose an ear... ten more, and its the nose...

Re: Amazing weather
 

You are a true Quebecer. If you couldn't have the weather to complain about, it would be the loss of the Expos, or the Habs, or possibly "les square heads"... :)

Our cold snap in late January lasts no more than 2 weeks. Remember that most of the people who live in Florida who complain about snow have lily white skin.

Re: Amazing weather
 

Dont care about the Expos, barely think about the habs, and at least Im honest, I never complain its too hot in the Summer ;)

Re: Amazing weather
 

Everyone is Florida is tanned! What you talking about, Willis?

Re: Amazing weather
 

Oooh. Great use of the language! :okthumb:

I grew up on Connecticut and remember winters where four feet of snow fell. Where this small girl fell on ice and shredded her palms and knees into hamburger. I *hate* cold. I *hate* ice. (Oh, sure it's pretty when it turns the leafless trees into glass sculptures in the sunlight...but it also manages to turn the streets into deathtraps.) Snow is pretty...but not pretty enough. I remember walking three feet above the surface of the backyard on the frozen top of the snow and suddenly hitting that spot where one foot went through. I'd stand their sobbing until my mother came out to rescue me. (I was wittle when I did this.)

I do miss fall color in New England, though. I've never seen anything like it.

Re: Amazing weather
 

Nope, this isn't even Indian Summer yet! That only happens after the first frost of the year, something we haven't even had yet. (That fact comes courtesy of Laurie Graham, the weathergirl on CFCF)

Carol was suntanning earlier in her new Wicked Weasel, almost there, bikini!! :okthumb: That has never happened in October up here in Montreal.
