Default Hot Weather

A couple of months ago during the peak winter the temperature was 7 degrees.

I went to the gym and did all of my errands in this weather with a short sleeve shirt on and LOVED IT!

I will NEVER understand why someone wants to wear a short sleeve shirt/shorts and have sweat dripping down there forehead just to check there mailbox.

What is everyones obsession with living in a oven for all 12 months out of the year?

Do you guys not want to have seasons?

It's been in the 60s/70s lately with clouds,winds(15/20 mph) and some rain the past couple weeks and today was 96 and sunny it's not like the weather stays 80 and above all year with no change at all,at least here.
I couldn't live in an oven all year and I don't know anyone in CA that does,maybe other places.

Well for me I have poor circulation and low blood pressure, so I am cold in any temperature below 75F. I do enjoy some things about the seasons, I think they all have a unique beauty at least. But winter makes me want to curl up in a blanket and sleep for 4 months. I don't necessarily want to live in an oven though, I prefer a sauna

But I am glad there are people like you who enjoy the cold, otherwise everyone living in the north would be miserable half the year...

We've had some fluctuations in So Cal too (not sure if you were in LB or SF recently). It was in the 60s/70s for a few weeks and then was 90 today. It actually felt nice though and the lack of humidity made the heat a nonissue for sweat unless you wanted to take a jog. It was a great day to go lay out at the beach or pool, go to the park, go shop outdoors, have lunch on the patio, etc... It brought out the summer side of us Southern Californians.

LOL yeah it gets hot,it is a lot more tolerable near the coast though as the ocean breeze really evens it out and makes the night time perfect,imo.

We "May" hit 100 tomorrow in the Phoenix Metro area. Then it should start cooling down to the high 70's by the weekend.

We deal with our 110's to 115's during the summer - and it is for a short period of the. Some years back, we did hit 122 for a couple of days in a row. No big deal.
