70 degrees in Chicago in December. Only the third time that's happened since record-keeping started in 1871.

This thread made me think of the weather forecast when they come out with warning signs like:
DANGER: SNOW
or
DANCER: ICE
and so I wondered is the weather dangerous or is it the people that are?
The answer to the OP:
''how is the weather''
appropriately might be:
''the weather is dangerous''.

Indeed.
I'm sick of the weather this year, totally sick of it. Can't get out of the house to bike ride or play tennis. Heavy snow predicted for tomorrow and Saturday too.
Hi Neely. I brave it all come rain or sun. my bike takes it all and I enjoy it. if the weather can't come to us one must go to it. It could only love us for it,Originally Posted by Neely
I shan't shunt from the weather and it will not shunt from me come rain or sun. it should throw surprises too if we upraise it too

We are quite lucky with regard to snow down here as the South East, although not immune , does manage to avoid the worst of it. But the rain and constant grey skies week in and out are immensely depressing. That's why I tend to hibernate in winter by sleeping as long as possible. If I were rich enough I would have houses in different parts of the world and follow the sun with the intention of never spending a single day under cloudy skies. That's why I could never understand why very wealthy people stay here.
Why be miserable when you could be contented?

Yes I said the same thing this morning in the staff room with my back pressed against the radiator. I would be off for five month of the year at least. It just seems to have been the longest winter this one.
It is a noble attitude Cacian and probably better than moaning, however last week I took my new bike out for a ride and was absolutely freezing. I had two pairs of gloves on and four layers including two coats and couldn't feel my hands. That's not fun. Tomorrow's snow means that I'm walked to work again and walking back, no doubt dodging snowballs each way. It's supposed to be spring. This time last year it was 20 degrees, this week has been down to -5 at times. We are coming up to about 6 months solid of grey skies, rain, snow, ice, cold etc, etc and I'm just really sick of it. I forgot what the sun looks like.
One of the reasons why it seems so long is because, apart from about 3 weeks, we didn't get any sun last summer and suffered the wettest one on record.
If people don't get enough sunshine in the summer months it lays them low for the rest of the year.
