Been in SoCal my whole life. Could never handle living in cold weather with ice and snow. Have visited the colder climates and that’s all I need to know it’s not for me. At the same time do not like the sometimes 100+ degrees summers we get here.

Very happy in the fall and winter, even spring. Don’t mind the 80s and 90s, but after that it becomes too hot for my taste. Thank God for air-conditioning. Even though our summers are getting hotter, would rather take that than icy cold winters.

PS - 60s and 70s range is my favorite temperature.

Currently 50 and sunny now. The last few days has been "OMG WE'RE GETTING DANGEROUS BLIZZARD STARTING THURSDAY."

That latest stuff this morning says we will be getting less than 1" here in OKC.

Weekend days were 70 or so, certainly shirtless backyard working weather.
This morning was 38 when I got up.

Come Saturday, I'm getting on a boat in San Diego and heading south for a week. I imagine it will be nice, and I imagine I won't tell you anything about it until AFTER I get back.

It was -4C (25F) today, but with the wind-chill it felt much colder than that.
