It's 80 degrees here now in Upstate New York |
|
We're about 20 miles north of Syracuse. The weather is balmy and bright with low humidity and a gentle breeze. It'll drop to 65 degrees overnight with predicted highs for the week between 85 and 75. Since I usually am asked how I can stand to live in a place with so much snow, I thought it'd be a good day to answer.
By the way, most years the snow runs from late December to early March, and we have snow plows that look like something out of a movie on the Sci-Fi network. I used to drive to work in a Chevette, and in six years missed one day due to snowfall!

I lived for many years in your neck of the woods. The southern end (Seneca/Tompkins Counties). The winters could be annoying but I just loved the summers.
SO STOP RUBBING IT IN!!!! :silly:
Here in the Savannah area, the winters are more moderate, but the summers are monotonous:
"Partly sunny, hot and humid today, high 90-100, chance of afternoon or evening thunderstorms. Tonight, warm and muggy, low 75-80, chance of more thunderstorms. Tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that, more of the same...."
I can't wait to see what global warming does to things... aside from putting folks here along the coast underwater that is....
Hey, I MISS those Sci-Fi channel snowplows!!

4. I figure it's only fair to praise our summer weather. |

After all, we New Yorkers have to put up with people bragging all winter about how warm their weather is. Of course, i think those same people have been flabbergasted the last few weeks at how warm their weather is!
By the way, the lawn is beautiful and the garden looks great! I haven't watered once this year! Right now the entire house is perfectly comfortable with one box fan running at low speed!(Now that's rubbing it in!)
