Oh how I wonder what it would be like to live in a place....

....THAT NEVER GOT COLD. Don't think I could deal with 100°+ in the summer either. If it got down to freezing wouldnt bother me but below zero and its barely a week into November. Sixteen weeks of this. They tell me the Pacific Northwest is nice. Never spent a winter there though. Oh what would it be like.....

Internet is showing 12F at the moment for Pine River. Up here, thermometer is reading 6.6F; up from the 3.0F it read about 2 hours ago. Yup, might be a nippy Winter.

Mine is showing 15° supposed to be 4° by day break according to Weather Underground.
 
Summers in the northwest are probably the best anywhere. Temps in the 70's to mid 80's usually, been pretty dry the past few years (less than 2 inches of rain from May 1 to end of September this year). Winters aren't so bad, if you don't mind a little rain. Generally doesn't rain very hard, just often- but at least you don't have to shovel it. Had our first killing frost this morning. Generally doesn't get below 20, except for the occasional "artic front"- then maybe teens or single digits for a few days. Most winters we can leave carrots and beets in the garden and harvest them all winter.

Down side? No grain corn- can't get it dried down. No soybeans, either. Some wheat, but it can start raining at harvest time and it all lodges and sprouts in the head.
 
Yea. We go from deep freeze to rainy humid monsoon back to deep freeze. The past few years have been brutal. No springs, no falls.

Internet says it?s 8 degrees, wall says 6 degrees. Probably feels warmer out than it did yesterday tho, no wind right now. Was brutal out
yesterday, 20-27 mph winds.

Wears a person down. At least we got harvest done. Lot of tillage work to do, or going on.

BIL was in Hawaii for a time with Army COE then as a civilian. After a while he wanted to go where the seasons changed. So he took a job with Aramco in Saudi Arabia (lots of $$) and stayed there over 20 years till he retired. Go figure.
 
my sister-in-law and her husband live in Lake Co., Ca. Never really gets cold there. They are dealing with the smoke from a wildfire 100 miles away. I'll take the snow we got yesterday and today.
 
My wife's Uncle and Aunt do missionary work in Kenya. they live in a place that stays about 75 degrees year-round, with lows in the 60's....
 
I don't want to burst your bubble but I worked in Hawaii for several months and the locals griped about the weather there too. They said that every day
is like the day before....no diversity....boring; 72*, reasonably low humidity, sunny days, light breezes. For you and for me, on a limited basis it's an
oasis.
 
2 degrees (wish it was C, but it is F) right now. I little bit cool here in central MN along the Mississippi. Jim
 
Kinda of sort of like the weather down here.
It can get hot and dry and stay hot and dry for weeks and months.
The TV weather people appear to squeal with delight when a little system develops in the gulf.
 
(quoted from post at 00:58:59 11/10/18) Understand Hawaiian weather is very stable year round.
Yes, have heard that about Hawaii. Have also heard that they have many rolling landscapes. ...No, seriously -- the landscapes just keep rolling into the sea!! :shock:
 
One day when I worked for an insurance company, I was talking to a fellow in Hawaii.

It was about 30 degrees here with snow flurries in the air, so I asked him what the weather was doing there. He said, "It's really yucky! Cloudy and drizzly".

I asked him what the temp was and he said about 80. I really felt sorry for him.
 
I live in the Willamette Valley of Oregon by Hillsboro. Winters are usually in the 30s to 40s. Sometimes it can get as low as 15 for up to a week but that?s a rare year when that happens. Rainfall is about 36? a year but mid June to mid September almost every day is dry and sunny. Summers normal highs in the low 80s but can get into mid 90s for short periods. Lots of winter wheat, grass seed, filberts, hay and nursery stock.
Go 100 miles east and it?s totally different weather.
 

Around the NC/SC coast line is enjoyable year round. Yes it gets hot but the humid normally is on the low side and yes it gets cold but rarely freezes...
