Since that will never happen here, it's not worth complaining about. Again, I picture you moving to Chicago or somewhere in the Bos-Wash corridor after you get your degree. That will make you happier I guess
If we were having an October like last year I wouldn’t be complaining much. I understand that in Tucson I can’t expect the type of weather I would like to have but it really pisses me off when it’s hot and dry even relative to averages for here.

Last October was 1 in 100, you can't expect that kind of deviation every year
Technically you had 9 days of 97°F+ heat in summer going by 6/21-9/22 rather than 6/1-8/31. It's reasons like this why I've started going by the calendar seasons again rather than the meteorological ones.
It was also hot in late May and early June, we did have a cool spell around June 10-15. It hit 93 every day from May 24-29. I think the 9/23 end date for summer works well here but summer always starts well before 6/21. I would say 5/21 is a more reasonable date. Maybe winter and summer should start one month before their calendar date, because the four seasons aren't equal in length.
Wasn’t last winter barbaric enough for you in terms of cold weather? Come on, record cold isn’t liable to occur every winter. Come to think of it, the Midwest hasn’t had a “Normal” winter in terms of temperatures since God knows when. The odds of having -20 or -30 temperatures for more than a couple consecutive winter seasons is fairly remote. I am for one done with winter, Indianapolis really hasn’t had a “Tame” winter season since the winter of 2011/2012.

It was 5.5°F below average here in Phoenix, you guys got more sun and less rain us, that's why you were closer to average
