It has to end!

We just had three of the hottest years on record, in a row.  Sucks for ice fishing.

I feel you on the white stuff.  I grew up in Saskatchewan.

76 degrees and blue skies today in PHX,  We suffer for it in the summer though.

I have a friend from there. He's back here now.

Phx or Sask?  Actually both have extreme seasons that are almost unlivable.
 

Saskatoon.  Farming family.  Moved to nola because he loved it.  Got married to SWMBO's best childhood friend.  She clerked for a federal judge, he wrote a software program that handled container shipping port traffic, sold it for millions, they moved back up to Saskatoon after Katrina, bought a historic building downtown with 50 apartments and a mall on the bottom floor.  They moved back down here a year ago and are restoring a beautiful mansion in uptown.  Some of the kindest and most humble people I know.  They have another place right on a parade route where we hang out during some of the uptown parades.

The best part about Phx summers is that everyone leaves town and it keeps our area from becoming southern california in terms of real estate prices and over crowding.  But itll be mid 70s here this week and in 73 minutes via car from my driveway ill be in snow.  Then i can leave it there and come back to nice weather

I grew up in midwest and learned that while heat is uncomfortable, cold is painful...we had a brutal cold set of days last week, even by phx standards and now we are back on track....

I will admit ive become a wimp when it comes to cold temps....

I hate, and i mean hate hate hate humidity.  Did i mention i hate humidity?

And as a teenager in WI i used to wear shorts outside even when it was in the 20s

What a nut!

@Acn - great snow ghost pic....

I don't think it is going to end!!! WTF

My favorite place, ever.

That area is spectacular.  I've hiked Mount Liberty from its base because it was near our campsite.  We drove up to Mount Washington...

 20C = 68F
-20C = -4F

So true. It's 60F at the moment getting up to the 70s. At lunch, when it will be in the high 60s, people will look like the girl on the beach. It's absurd.

Oh yeah, we had gloves, parkas, hats, and ear muffs.  We had 4 days in a row with night time lows below 32F.

Here on the Gulf Coast in Mississippi we have hardly had a winter and its' been just wonderful. 1 Week ish with a couple below 30 nights and 50 degree days (fahrenheit) Past that it's been above 60 where it belongs. I freaking hate cold. I don't understand why everyone who lives in places where it snows hasn't moved yet.
