Randyc321 Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 2 hours ago, Cascadia_Wx said: I really don’t want to write a manifesto on my preferences every other day, but I love spring and summer. It would just be nice not to sit under a stagnant ridge all warm season and choke on smoke and drought. I’m sure you already know I feel this way. It’s not an unreasonable desire. The 50s and rain all summer thing is just strawman crap The upcoming ridge will be fine I’m sure, and despite all the mischaracterizations I will be out enjoying the weather just as much as anyone. It would be nice if it wasn’t a harbinger of our warm season pattern, though. Although judging by how things have gone in recent years, it may be. But what good does it do you to hate the world because the climate isn't what is used to be? Maybe a change of locales is in order. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And further, I would dread the heat you guys get down there too. You're summer days always outdistance us in that department. BTW, I wasn't trolling earlier. If you don't enjoy where you live, it might be time for a change. Moving can be an awesome experience, regardless of the associated difficulties. IMO life actually shouldn't be spent in in single area. Even a move within the same region. Especially since ours is so diverse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
