Dumb things people say about the weather? (comparison, comfortable, overcast)

I'm so tired of -900 F departures in winter. SC should have average lows of above 70 F even in January.

"Winter in Florida is 80 degrees one day, 50 the next." So stupid, it's more like 14354 F to -2434452345 F in a day.

Sometimes even within an hour. NA climate epic fail. My Jacarandas get destroyed every winter.

Same thing happens to my phallus palms. I replant them every year, though. Can't beat the tropics! No snow for me!

My phylum retardus which are hardy down to 70 F get fried within ten seconds once December 1 hits. Some "subtropical" climate.

"Winter is cold and summer is hot, obvious" (probably said by people who live in the Eastern Half of the U.S.A. and Canada)

People in Mecca and Nuuk don't think the same

People here thinks that winter should be cold. Some forumers even think about jacketed players in the "Qatar Winter/fall World cup" thread in an Indonesian forum.

Maybe not weather related but its seasonal (regarding winter)

Hate standard time in winter .Pitch dark at 4pm

When his/her sunset times were like 4:30-5:00 and by Feb (still meteorological winter), past 5pm.

Mediterranean climates are not subtropical, even those with frost free winters & an annual mean of 19C, because they don't get rain in the summer... But places that have average winter lows below 0C & can get 3ft of snow are subtropical because they get handsome warm rain in the summer...

The old 40C with 99% humidity chestnut. One episode of Everybody Loves Raymond is guilty of this, I love the show but that scene made me cringe.


And ofcourse Sophie from Buenos Aires and her alleged 40C nights.
