Question Weather and Seasons

I never realized how shitty winter was until I moved to Massachusetts this past summer.

It has taken like 3 months to warm from 20 degrees to 70 degrees haha. Insanity. I'm used to making the transition from 30 degrees (if it gets that cold) to 80-90 degrees in a day or two. One day, its just hot and summer is here.. (from North Carolina).

Why do people live here!

Not to mention its expensive as shit, everyone lives with their parents.. crowded, etc. Everyone's car is rusting because of salt.. people marvel at my BMW with 280k miles on it that I paid 800 dollars for, runs like a champ, no salt no rust.. its common to see well kept cars run for 300k+ miles.

Good schools tho.

Anyway, getting my masters and going back south, but just thought I'd ponder this aloud, since I've been saying it to myself since I moved here haha.

It's part of "New England" for a reason... the weather is as shitty as it is here [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

People like all of the seasons up here. Winter can be beautiful as is Fall with the dense foliage. How are they down in SC? I'm from the Eastern PA region and love the Spring, Summer, and Fall up here.

Same deal in New York basically.


This year's spring seems to have taken AGES to come, today was the first day over 80 degrees.

It's why I want to move to Florida from NJ. It's warm year round and even though it's hot as hell in the summer there's air conditioning. Beats the shit of winter and I get that seasonal affective disorder when fall and winter come around.

Hasn't hit 80 in maine yet, thank god. highest has been 74 which is okay.

I don't know why people want it to be 80-90, whats so great about sweating your balls off from just sitting in the shade?

I'm with you there. 80 and sunny over memorial day weekend in northern Michigan was too hot for me unless I was sitting in the shade AND the breeze was blowing.

Thank God for refreshing beers.
