In Sydney.
I'm freezing and I'm so over Winter.
Can't wait to escape to Texas in September.
I'm in Greece. Couple weeks back we had a 4 day stretch where it was over 100 degrees each day. It was horrible. Going back to the states in a week though. Back to the fickle weather that belongs to Maryland

Here in Pennsylvania its been well over 90 the last week. Wish wet could trade weather for a few days

TMBRLZ it's gotten up to 117 F in Summer.
I sat outside, eating a chilling dog with hot sauce.
Perfect.

Welcome to England, where 20 C is high, 10 is standard, and winter is usually 0 or less and it rains 200 days of the year...literally

46 degrees, that's like early spring here in New England
Although with the weather here, you never know. This April the temperature got to 85 degrees Fahrenheit for like 3 days, then went back down to 51

ERoss8 It's been pretty hot this week, varying from 70-90 F.

I'm wearing a jacket when it's 60 F.
For sure.
Plus a long sleeved T shirt under a regular T shirt, a scarf, and a beanie.
That shit is COLD.

Hey Argy This is a typical summer, and winter in the state of Vermont, USA.
Summer: as warm as 36C (97F) with humidity averaging around 64% or more throughout the season, and at some points, it has been recorded as high as 90%.
Winter: yeah... how does -37.78C (-36F) at some points sound to you? Oh and don't forget the 2 meters (75 inches) of snow we get a year, on average!
So comparing my winters to your current weather, I consider yours almost spring! So whip out your sunscreen, because you're going to need it. :P

Hello fellow Vermont comrade!! How is the weather today?! XD

@Ohthenoises you found friends! lol
It is cold up here in Vermont for sure. I skied at Stowe (part of Mt Mansfield, highest peak in VT) this past winter and it was -14f at the summit, not including wind chill! Your skin will just die from exposure at that point :|
QUIZ TIME: at what temperature are Celsius and Fahrenheit the same?! No peeking!

There was a stretch a couple weeks ago here in Phoenix where the recorded high each day was above 115 for 8 days in a row.
Lowest low temp during that period?
93.
Weird thing is, though, once the sun gets lower in the sky, it doesn't even feel bad. Or maybe that's just because I've lived here for 27 years.
It's cool, though. Hit me up when it's 71 on Christmas Day and I'm sunbathing by the pool.

We have hot Christmases.
I love it.
Typical Christmas lunch?
Ice cold beer and prawns, and a barbecue with salad.

I'd prefer to freeze right now. It's almost 100 in Cincinnati, with ridiculous humidity. It's so hot that you can't even relax in the shade without looking like someone poured a glass of water over your head.

People joke that "it's a dry heat", but holy shit; it's true. I've spent many a summer in Kansas growing up and I'd easily choose 117F with 9% humidity over 95F and 70% any day of the week. The air I breathe here may be hot, but at least I can physically breathe it. That, and sweat dries the instant you sit down in the shade, though it's not like anybody does anything outside during the early afternoons anyway.

It's true; when you walk out of a building with air conditioning into a humid day, its like getting punched in the throat.

See that doesn't seem freezing to me. But I live in Illinois up in the states.
So funny seeing how people react in different temperature zones. People in Florida wear long sleeves and jackets when its in the 60s and people in Michigan are wearing tanktops and apologizing for the heat in the exact same scenario.
