I remember one summer when SF actually got warm, DavidS commenting that the tourists in their shorts and t-shirts were actually comfortable instead of freezing and having to enrich the local economy by buying sweaters and such.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Chicago in the spring/summer is generally gorgeous.
SF weather, I can't deal with. Why can't you hippie freaks have your seasons at the same time as the rest of us?

My one trip to Chicago in the summer was in July and it was incredibly hot and humid.
When we went to SF a couple summers ago (in August), it was super cool and damp (which we'd packed for) but then when we drove up to Santa Rosa, I had to buy new shoes because all I had were boots and it was quite warm and sunny. Gorgeous weather!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
right now, a temperature where all I need as outerwear is a sweatshirt sounds great.
Beckons invitingly to Steph from San Diego, where temps have been in the 70s this week. Brandishes Peanut Butter Bacon Burger from Corvette Diner to make it even more attractive...

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Weird cognitive dissonance knowing how cold it is everywhere else in the country.

OMG Jessica you made me laugh!
Okay I really need to buckle down and get to work. Which may call for coffee STAT!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hahaha!
The sky outside my window is really gorgeous right now, but in a subtle way that I bet wouldn't show on a phone picture.

We've put down the blinds to try to warm up the office, so now it is freezing and DARK.
I would be so disconcerted to live in a place without seasons. Or in a place with Wrong Seasons (like Australia. Summer in December? NOOOOO!)

Oh, god, hot flashes. In a room where the heaters are running becuse it's January even with the sun beating in.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yes! As immortalised in this song: [link] We hit 40 degrees last week, 104 to the Fahrenheiters. (Today it's a rainy 19 degrees.) Of course, having lived here nearly all my life, I can say quite confidently that you're the ones with the wrong seasons. As evidence, let me note that the lowest Melbourne temperature on record, ever, is -3. And almost all of Australia is further north than us.

For you north is closer to the equator, right? so in addition to having the wrong seasons, your directions are upside-down.
