Quit your whining, you want cold it hit -40ºC here a couple of years ago, with the wind chill it was -70ºC. Bare flesh would freeze in under 2 minutes. Though that cold is not normal but -40ºC is, and the moisture in the air makes the cold here more painful than the dry cold they have in the prairies. And in the summer we get the opposite, 30ºC with the humidex putting it up to 45-50ºC, so high they warn people to stay inside to avoid heat stroke. The Appalachians might be nice to look at but when they channel the wind down the river in the winter, and trap the humidity and block the wind in the summer they can be a pain. And if you want snow Amelie I can mail you tons, it snowed all day here

my area, Maryland, has the blessing of moderate temperatures only.

in the winter it's cold, but not that cold, more often than not it rains than snows. anything below freezing is cold

in summer its hot, but again not that hot. 85 F would be considered hot

though slowly my area has been getting hotter
I prefer hotter weather (the kind Alizée likes in Corsica),
so I say bring on the hot

Well thanks for the the Canadian Artic Front!

Monday was 59 F
Tuesday droped to 31 F and started snowing
Today's high was 15 F and tonight suppose to be -2 F

No worries though. The radio stations have started playing holiday music, and everyone is bring out their lights, so it just puts me in the holiday mood.

(Yeah, yeah, a sauna for some of you folks but temp is subjective to where you're located and what your usual norm is.)

BTW, there is an Aspen, CO. Lots of well to do folks up there.

California is spoiled, we think anything below 60 is freezing.

Riva is from Maryland? My family flew into there once going to D.C., 'tis an awsome place, definately one of my fav states.

Not really. We have here in Finland health treat places that has rooms like saunas but their temperature is even below -100 centigrades (below -148F). And you go bare naked there.

Tho yea, it's different at wind but still, skin doesn't freeze easily.

It was something like 10C here today.. Very mild day

The salt they plaster everywhere is more annoying than the cold though. Theres so much damn salt all over the sidewalks and streets it's almost easier to trip on than the ice it self!

Edit: No packing snow yet.. Patiently waiting for it..
