Title: It's cold out there!
Post by: Sir Lawrence on January 24, 2008, 01:56:13 PM
For our friends like SoCal, and Chicos, etc., a little taste of Milwaukee this morning (minus four on the way into the office):

It's been cold and raining here in SoCal for the past couple of days.  Not as cold as out there, but it's all relative as they say.

Hope it warms up out there soon!!

I remember that type of cold when I was going to U of A in Tucson. It would around 65 and sunny and you would see the kids from northern cities going to class in a sweatshirt, shorts and flip flops. While the kids from SoCal and Zona were in down North Face jackets. I wouldn't call it relative but rather wimpy on their part.  ;D

Don't worry, help is on the way.  Someone influential said yesterday the North Pole could be gone in 5 years.  So warmer temps are on the way

I will say this....the picture is beautiful.  Watching the Packers game the other day my wife turned to me and basically put down the gauntlet...."NEVER NEVER again are we living there"


She's a So. Cal native and that experience didn't exactly suit her well in Milwaukee, though she loved the beer and the people but the weather was killer for her.

I must admit that I miss it more then I thought.

Living in southern AZ, I don't miss it at all, and we go back only when we have to.  Summers are better here also.
BUT, agree with Chicos, you can tell the tourists because the're in shorts and the natives are bundled up because it's only 65 and (always) sunny.

Great picture SL!  It reminds me of the MU days long ago...  I'm sure I didn't fully appreciate walking between classes in those temps with the wind whipping across campus at the time, but it really was fun.  It gets cold out here (I'm NW of Boston) but not nearly as cold as there!
