so how is the weather out there? We want to move out there from Illinois I just hate these winters but it looks as we are going to have to wait till the economy gets better before we sell our home.

I moved from Northern Michigan in Dec. and I tell ya, winter here (so far) is like late winter/early spring in Traverse City. From what I understand, they do get ice storms now and then though.

I haven't worn a jacket the last couple of days when I went out. I like that!

Default weather

great I can handle a ice storm but I really hate 35 below zero that we get here. I have lupus and rhumatoid arthritis and I am only 33 so the winters are brutal on my body the comlete winter months I feel like I am 90 instead of 33 because of the cold so hope that we can get out there next year...

I hear you....Boston weather is awful except for maybe about 5 months a year. If it is not bitter cold, then it is a gray day....YUCK!!! I would love to be living where a "cold day" is 45 degrees!!

I'm loving it here so far. There's nothing like new territory to explore!

I did see one day where it got down in the 20's, but it didn't last.

I am not familiar with Ridott and I should be from my work in Chicago. You can view our weather at this link Greenville Weather, Greenville, South Carolina Weather & Forecast - WYFF Greenville's Channel 4 which is based on Mauldin's zip code.

I moved here from the Chicago area a little over a year ago and can tell you that the weather here is WAY better. When it does get cold, though, it sometimes seems colder to me than when I was in Illinois. I think it's because it's a more damp cold, if you know what I mean. It was hard to take the first winter, but I've adjusted and doing much better this one.

I don't know if you have allergies, but that's something to consider. There are a LOT of blooming trees, bushes and flowers here, and allergies can be of concern for some people. But, in my opinion, it's worth taking a few allergy pills to live in such a beautiful part of the country.
