Here in the Chicago area, it's just stupid cold right now with near 0-degree-and-below windchills. And we have another winter storm coming tonight!

In the summer, you can fry eggs on the hood of your car - not sure if you'd want to eat them after that though. It seems we don't get a spring or a fall anymore, we just go from heat-stroke to deep-freeze/frostbite.

Every year, I'm asking myself, "Why do I live here?" What's it like where you live? Is there anywhere that has relatively moderate temperature swings over the course of the seasons? Tell me, please. I'm ready to move.

Iowa dropped 90 degrees between Monday and Tuesday this week. From 70 to the negatives in the 20 - 40 below zero range....with wind 40-60 mph.

It royally bit it!

Argh!

Atleast you're in Chicago and not the farm fields of Iowa!

Western coast is pretty even for weather swings. Doesnt really get crazy hot and seldom dips below freezing but you can still tell what season it is. Anyplace west of the Cascade mountains.

You want to move to San Diego. The weather today was sunny and about 60 degrees out and although night time can get into the 30s sometimes in the winter, the temp stays fairly even. Most of the year it stays in the 70s, even in the summer. Yep, if you want boring weather San Diego is where you want to go.
