see Im all for the south. While I dont like hot hot days where the humidity is so dense you can cut it with a knife, at least down there, everything is airconditioned. You have the choice of swimming to cool down or crank up your ac. My house now has no AC. I can deal with it so long as Im wearing a bikini top and shorts,or Im outside playing in the sprinkler with my son. What I hate about up north is that there is 6-7 months where it gets so downright cold, even layering your clothes, its still too bitter to do anything outside. And I have the heat up and wearing 3 shirts and two pairs of socks, Im still shivering.
Give me hot weather with options to cool down over trying to stay lukewarm any day
Where I live the Great Lakes regulate much of the climate. Just over the river they could be having a huge blizzard, but here it will be 10F degrees hotter and an overcast day. We do sometimes get "lake effect" snow though. Beyond that, it's usually no colder than -15 deg C. Works for me.
