Hace fresco con sol.

Really...

The only problem with the north-midwest is that it still gets ass hot during the summer. if it didn't. i'd love it here.

Continental climates are so extreme in variance. -50 in winter to 100 in summer.

[CJSchneider]

Winter is by far my favorite season in regards to weather.

[fenikz]

ill take 110+ every day over anything below 40

[slightlyaraiderfan]

[Paranoidmoonduck]

Right now in Northern Cali its hell. Pouring rain, 55mph winds. Love it.

Fixed that for you.

If vancouver actually got cold, i'd move there...

Maybe I should just buy a second house on the Hudson Bay.

Oh yeah, I'm sure it gets "hot" up there... please.


anyway, this is my weather right now:

AQ is correct. The continental climates have the greatest swing in seasonal temperatures due to the mixture of polar and tropical winds and being located inland from the major bodies of water.

I'm currently teaching a climate unit to 7th graders.... i hate teaching geography. It is so boring. :(

[SuperMcGee]

I didn't mind the geography courses I've taken so far. Geography of Europe was especially good, but that had a lot more cultural discussion in it.

Anyway, it is ******* cold.

[The Unseen]

I'm taking a Physical Geography course, so I know exactly wassup. The_Dude is correct; it does get hot up there. You've never heard of heat waves? Florida is moderate compared to other states. We rarely touch 100 - at the most we get into the mid 90s. Whereas other states can touch those numbers a week or so out of the year.

**** the cold, I ******* hate it so much.

Not this year... but last year was pretty brutal. and it's not by any stretch of imagination a 'dry heat'. and we don't get rain every day like Florida.

It's still low-mid 90's most of the summer. about 84-88 where I live (near the lake... hence the phrase cooler near the lake...), but, it has no problem ramping up to 97, 101... 104... AND THEN TO TOP IT OFF. the very same winter, it goes down to 12, 15 below zero.

and not everyone has air conditioning either.

the south only exists because of advances in air conditioning technology.

[Shiver]

It is 40 degrees and raining... terrible

[vikes_28]

Nobody knows weather extremes like people in the mid-west. It can be 70 degrees one day, then the next be 30 and snowing. And not to mention in the summer it gets humid as hell. Oh, and we have tornadoes as well.
