Glenn:

Come on down to NE Florida.  We hit 93 this afternoon.  We are supposed to cool off tomorrow.  Only 85 for a high.

Or, you could move to North By God Carolina!  WE have hit 90 several days already, but we still get the four seasons, and once in a while (around here that is) we get snow.  I live near the middle/Southern part of the State.  Not far from the Ocean, and not far from the Mountains (where I was born!). 

Down side is there are only two dedicated C/L sites in the whole State anymore.  One in Huntersville (Charlotte) run by the Metroliners and maintained by the Parks and Rec., the other near Winston Salem also run by the Parks and Rec.  Both are over two hours away from me, and no Interstates to get to either from here........  :'(

Glenn, you are complaining about a little snow flurry?  Here in the KC area I go to crossing with low 50 F temps,  afternoon wearing short sleeves and temps pushing 80's.  But at least we don't have to worry about brush fires or being washed off the hilllsides.  Just have a little thing called a Tornado once in a while.

Yea, Spring came back a couple of weeks ago. After a couple of weeks of decent weather (mostly to partly clear with mild winds and temps in the high 50s to a few low 60s), it's been very windy, rainy, thunderstorms, yada, yada, yada, for the past two weeks. You could fly a bit if your timing was good, but overall, pretty nasty. The weatherliars are still predicting partly cloudy, 60° with winds at 5mph this Saturday but that is 3 days away. I'm sure by Friday, the prediction will be radically different. Sigh...

My weather prediction method? Look out the window.

Thanks you all for your "concern"!  LL~  We have nine months of winter here, then three months of bad sledding!  Our planes have snow chains on the tires and plows under the propellors. y1 H^^

You forgot to add that the air is clean and you get to see the Northern Lights dancing in the midsummer night sky while having a last beer before calling it a day!
