jeh10641 Posted May 9, 2022 #177 Share Posted May 9, 2022 I agree. Law to outlaw winter I would support. Here in the Seattle area, through May 7, 2022, we have quadrupled our average rainfall for the first week of May. And we are about 5-10 degrees below normal for temperature.

Only if spring and summer are outlawed at the same time. That leaves fall---the best time of the year. Especially early fall from mid-September to late October. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer spring to fall .I like sunshine and 70 degree temperatures.The best part of summer is when there is daylight till nearly 9PM . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring where I live is rainy, and frequently a damp cold (temps in the 50s, when it's raining isn't nice at all). Fall, on the other hand, is sunny, dry, deep blue cloudless sky, with temps around 70º. You can understand why I prefer fall to spring. Summer is hot, humid, sticky, and you have to stay inside in the A/C to be comfortable. You can have it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seasick Sailor Posted November 8, 2022 #184 Share Posted November 8, 2022 We worked in Mesa Arizona (Boeing) til 1998. Too "dam" hot. Moved to Hamilton Montana upon retirement. Winters bitter cold with blinding snowstorms, 20 below for days and weeks. Our dog (border collie/blue heeler) LOVED the freezing weather! Moved to Coeur d'alene Idaho in 2003. Nearly perfect but still nasty, cold winters. Moved to Georgetown, Texas in 2020. Long hot summer this year, but think we will stick to Texas!!

Rare ski ww Posted November 10, 2022 #185 Share Posted November 10, 2022 It's fall now so it's time to rack up the leaves, we have now done it 7 times & will do it again today hopefully for the last time before the snow falls. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylvermyst Posted November 11, 2022 #186 Share Posted November 11, 2022 We've been unseasonably warm lately, but tomorrow supposedly that is going to change. I think overnight we drop 50 degrees F. Hopefully everyone else is having an excellent autumn. Happy cruising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jananza Posted January 25, 2023 #190 Share Posted January 25, 2023 In Youngstown, OH, we have the first snow day of the year. It must be because of icy roads. One local school declared it a remote day; another is opening two hours late. Party-poopers! I think when the schools are closed, every parent of those school kids should automatically be excused from work. While they're excusing those workers, all the businesses should close. Essential workers should get double pay for braving the roads. There's a lot of stupid drivers around here when the first flake falls. (And I spent the first 28 years of my life in Florida.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SUESEABE Posted January 26, 2023 #191 Share Posted January 26, 2023 @Jananza Put the winter tires on the car & bring the snow shovels out. Brrr! We had a dusting of snow today also, then rain washed it away. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ski ww Posted January 26, 2023 #192 Share Posted January 26, 2023 If you're just putting your snow tires on now & just bringing out the snow shovels, you are very lucky. We've been blowing snow since Nov. Another storm last night & will have to blow more snow after breakfast, just heard the snow plow going down our street. Enjoy the rest of your winter.

RuthC Posted February 5, 2023 #196 Share Posted February 5, 2023 We had a record low air temperature for today's date at -5ºF; first time below zero in five years. Wind chills were around -30ºF. Tomorrow is supposed to be in the mid-40s, with above average temps all week. San Diego's 51ºF is sweater weather! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greensprout Posted February 5, 2023 #197 Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) +8C but windy and raining here. Looks like the sun will be returning mid week... (think pacific north west climate if you're from US). When it's so overcast I cannot see the mountains from my den as when it's clear. Yes, I'm fortunate to live in one of the mildest climate areas of Canada. Edited February 5, 2023 by greensprout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
