Weather WTF

[garbon]

When I think about "nice spring weather" I think about it being warm. Clearly your mileage varies.

Nice early spring-like* weather here last couple of days.




* is that specific enough?

For sure.  Here nice spring days mean it isn't winter weather anymore and, in any place other than Languish, that context would not be lost in a post being made in January.

I just finished clearing my driveway with my new snow blower, first time using it, and it was tough work with so much snow. Glad to have the new, more powerful machine. We got at least two feet of snow, as all the news reports of surrounding areas are in the 24 to over 30 inch range. When I first went out the snow was up over my knees in the drifts outside my door; I had to use the shovel to help clear a path to the shed where my snow blower is.

I think that in a good many places, people would lament 14C as cold weather.

In the middle of winter?  Too bad you don't currently live in one of those places

According to Garbo you should be thankful you don't live somewhere cold like Vancouver.

Oh yes definitely on both counts. Of course, I was largely talking about spring weather which it was spring-like weather that I think we were discussing.

His weather would just be much colder.  Sure would it likely be nicer in Mass if it was 50 degree temps? Sure. Doesn't really make that sound like great spring like weather though.

Garbo, I think what you are trying to say is that there are parts of the world that neither experience Winter or Spring weather.  I am talking about Spring weather that we are experiencing in Winter.  It is as much a comment about climate change as anything but that gets lost in your silly "I know a place warmer than where you live" antics.

[garbon]

Weird since you were doing the antics of boasting about your how great your weather was.

Compared to places that actually have a season called Winter.  Yes.  But again, context is lost with you.

[garbon]

No, your boasting about Vancouver is never lost on me.

edit: I'm going to let the bit slide with that "places that experience winter" as that would lead us into discussing how different places experience winter differently.

My brother and his wife have been spending winters in Florida for the last few years. They love it, and always call to ask about the weather, especially when we get snow or very cold temps. They don't miss the cold but like to know what's going on in back here.

I'm giving thought to making a snowbird run next January.
