Been cold here in Phoenix by AZ standards, definitely winter.

Can't walk around in shorts any longer.

If you think peaking in the high 60s is cold, you're a *****.

And I'm a Florida native. I would kill for that right now. It's low/mid 80s today.

Its warming up this week. But we were at 55 yesterday and had some rain the days before. I'm mostly outside during mornings and evenings tho, so i face 45 degree weather which is pretty cold compared to 115 days we had a couple months ago.

When do you guys generally get your first major snow in Wisconsin?

It's been seasonally warmish in the Northeast over the last few days, but it has dropped today... and we're set to see a little snow.

115 would make me kill myself. The humidity HAS to be less than Florida, otherwise... that's a literal death sentence.

Yeah fortunately no rain. july-august is official "monsoon season", aka the rain season, but all we get is huge haboobs instead. the weatherman declares it rain season but instead we get dirt storms :oldlol:

i hate the summer so much i am paying extra year round for an apartment with an attached garage so i don't combust in the summer.

still, phoenix metro area is the fastest growing county in the entire country. my business is benefiting directly from this tremendous growth.

my plan (as soon as i can afford to be hands off) is to move up north to Flagstaff, it's a 2hr drive from Phoenix but with way better scenery and weather since it's 7,000ft in elevation. live there during the summer (may-october) and come back to phoenix during the colder months.

Well if you're planning on essentially becoming a snowbird, you've got life figured out already as it pertains to weather. Congrats.

Up here in Alaska we didn't have any snow until this morning. We were hit with a 4 foot day a week ago but a rain storm washed it all away.
