    It's only 48º in San Diego, plus we've got an icy wind blowing off the ocean. You'd think it was winter or something. :(

    My friend who works at Disney got to work at 8am and it was only 39º. This is not acceptable.

    When I got back to CA a few days ago, it was around 40 at night. That's shorts weather!

    Of course, it's like 85 where I am now but...

    It's 55 here now but it feels like it's 30. I've survived the harshest of snows in new england but they don't compare to this kind of cold.

    In all seriousness, I feel for you guys. Colorado has a dry cold, so it's really not too terrible. You've got a humid cold... that's much worse.

    Ah, gee - it was 38 yesterday late morning with traces of snow in the "convergence zone" here in the temperate NW. It warmed to just above 40. (It is dumping hard in the mountains - our highway passes, btw, are between 3000 and 4000' - the ones that remain open all winter, that is. The 5000 and higher are all closed.)

    I was out last night and something was falling from the sky, but it wasn't rain. Not sure what. That shouldn't happen here.

    There was ice on my windshield!!!

    I don't really mind the cold otherwise. As long as it's above freezing most of the time, it's much easier to cope with than hot weather.

    Er, I mean, wah I'm a stereotypical southern Californian and I can't stand any weather that isn't mild.

    This went on for several minutes and it was water once it hit the ground.

    Chicago set a new record for latest measurable snowfall, but the wait is just about over.

    It's 49 degrees here, which is cold. Expected overnight low is in the mid-to-low 30's. All the cars were covered in frost this morning. It's almost 1 p.m. here and it's still only 49 degrees....

    I think I've finally found people who whine worse than North Carolinians in December. People around here think they live in Florida or something. They think they're supposed to be able to wear short sleeves all year.

    I'm begging New Englanders to send some snow. Among other reasons, watching people hoard bread like it's the apocalypse is hilarious.

    I used to live in San Diego. One winter the pilot light wen tout in the furnace. Oh noes! I awoke one morn freezing my butt off! I went down and checked the temperature. It was 55 degrees. Right now 55 in Michigan would be t-shirt weather.

    I live on the Central Coast and I definitely complain when it's below 65 or above 75 (which amounts to about two weeks a year.) I have Raynaud's Syndrome so my hands and feet just freeze just freeze all day during the cold spells.

    It's 77 right now which is way too warm for less than a week before Christmas. Not that I want to freeze my ass off or anything but this just doesn't feel right.
