Ok. So you get some snow damage. Come on over to the east coast for a little bit and you'll see what your missing here in the natural disaster department. You guys don't have that much to complain about exept the cold.
Last winter had thunder rain storms. Michigan can't even catch a break on the bad things it is noted for. I guess we can ask if our grocier can put a few bottles of cherry wine in the corner for us. lol

Not much of a change in California.
I was born and raised in Cadillac, Michigan. Went to High school in "Benton Harbor", moved to Ca. early 70's.
I didn't know how much I missed the change of seasons until I moved to Oklahoma 4 months ago.
Soon we will be up to our a$$ in snow. Ain't it grand?
Snow, cold wet soup on the road. Ahhh, the salt quietly rusting our cars.
The noreasters,wind blowing through our bones.
Michigan, god's country, why because no one else wants it. lol
Have another cup of coffee, that might help Mom called yesterday from Michigan, said she had to turn her furnace on for the first time!! Ah, Michigan in the Fall.....gotta love it!

May I suggest a sauna (Florida) or a furnace (Arizona) instead? Nowhere on earth has perfect weather, even those above-mentioned states that somehow every retard on earth wants to move to for "better weather". Let em enjoy their 85 degrees and super humidity, or their 33+ days of 110 degrees and up. A few months of cold temps and sporadic snowfall never hurt anyone...except the whiners.
Let me ask you guys this. Do certain holidays need to be in certain weather conditions to make them "feel" right?
I ask this because as being raised in New England I have certain memories related to holidays and weather. To me it just doesn't "feel" right if on Thanksgiving it 70 degrees outside. I think the mid or low 40s "feel" right. And Christmas, Well I always hope for snow. I like the walking in the winter wonder land feel.
So for those you you that where raised in Michigan and/or in Northern climates, Do you feel the same way?
Of course personally come around February I've had about enough of the 0 to 20 degrees weather. But hey that's what they invented Brandy for.
