Sure is beautiful during the Christmas Season! There's a video on youtube that showcases some of Buffalo's Christmas decor and atmosphere - YouTube - Christmas Tree Lighting in downtown BUFFALO, NEW YORK!!! - it's kinda long and boring, but the scenes in it are pretty nice.
Bring on the heat. It is just starting to get warm here in Tempe. Barely hitting 100 most days. Can't wait until July and August when it is 110+ with high humidity from the monsoons. We do have four seasons, it is just our winter is like the summers back east. If we need to cool off, the mountains up north are only a 2-3 hour drive and San Diego is only an hour away by plane. It can't get much nicer.
I originally lived in Chicago for 23 years and have been in Tempe for 30+. Best move I ever made.
That's just really stupid to put up and actually it's really immature too.
North and south has nothing to do with how smart some one is Individually. You can Motivate yourself to be really Incredibly Smart and live in the Middle of the Amazon Rain Forest. It's all about how you apply yourself and you don't have to be just book smart to be considered "smart"... Im sorry but that's just beyond shallow minded.
There's People that live in Bad Crime Ridden Gang Infested Areas of some major cities of the Northeast, Southeast, Midwest, West...Doesn't matter and they can be Way Way more smarter when it comes to Street Smarts and sometimes that's more Important...that just being Book Smart.. and if you have Both your pretty much Unstoppable.
Judging by your grammar and punctuation skills, I assume you must belong in the "Street Smarts[sic]" category.
I know why you like cold b/c you don't like sun? let me ask you this. If you had to chose one season for the rest of your life what season would it be? my guess is most people in the world would chose summer.
I would want to choose Winter.I couldn't stand walking out to the car and back and end up drenching in sweat. I would much rather walk out to the car and back and have my glasses fog up.

Sure, but I do however think it's interesting how education is in colder Northern climates compared to warmer Southern climates. Not just in the US, but in the world in general.
Not to say that I'm arguing on the side of the other guy. I get an odious feeling about his posts.
Don't understand either. But I think weather is just one factor of evaluating a city. Most people are more concerned about jobs, cost of living, family roots, etc. Once they are in a city, they usually start to brag about how great the city is, despite the weather problem. I will move to a warmer place in a heatbeat after my study is done here in the Twin Cities. IMHO, the weather here really causes other problems for the city to progress in the long run.

I love Milwaukee more than any other city I have been to. Winter is terrible I can't believe people actually like shoveling a foot of snow every two weeks and the cold and dark days, you might as well live in Alaska. Why not live somewhere where people go on vacation, family you ask what are you going to cry every minute you can't see your aunts and uncles and parents. I hate winter and I know I'm just whining but when people tell me they like winter I also think they would like sleeping on a bed of nails too. I can't comprehend that when people tell me they like snow and cold and dark days and change of seasons. For me it's like trying to understand a Korean math problem. Nobody in there right mind I believe enjoys bad weather, these must be the people who love to be miserable. I'm moving to SD or Miami when the wife graduates grad school. Winter is the devils summer. I just don't believe you when you say I enjoy winter! yeah and I enjoy a hammer hitting my toes!!!
Sounds like you all should take the list of things you want together and move to the Denver area. Four distinctive seasons, winters with sunlight and snow, summers without mugginess and oppressive heat, and almost no long stretches of extreme heat or cold.
Why? b/c I prefer San Diego weather to Milwaukee weather and I have a hard time anyone would rather be freezing when you could be in perfect weather.
Hoarfrost was referring to me not you.
