God damnit even celestial bodies are going green to reduce global warming!

So it's either the sun or that goddamned groundhog, 'cause it refuses to get warm here in WI...

Sun of a bitch

I blame Al Gore personally, hes made warming trends not cool and now the sun is throwing a tantrum.

It was over 100º here in Arizona yesterday. Should be the same again today and then it drops to a cooler 96º by the weekend. :lol:

Yeah. I'm originally from the Bay and all of my family up north from you said the same thing this week.

I just checked current temps and LA is 20º cooler than where I am in AZ as I'm typing this up. Then again, we don't get the humidity that you guys do.

It's a chilly 90 degrees here in Denton, Texas today. I can just about see my breath.

You like that better than Washington? I'd be ready to kill myself before a year was up :^(

Actually, it hasn't been this hot until recently. I moved here in November and it was pretty cold. There were times when it got far colder than Portland. There was an absence of snow, but there were a few times where the roads froze over.

I can handle a summer's worth of heat. During the summer, I function on a mostly nocturnal schedule. The nights around here are awesome. It's the heat of the day that I avoid. I grew up in southern California. It gets pretty hot there during the summer time. I learned how to deal with heat early on.

I moved to Texas primarily because of the low cost of living and the amount of open space. I love driving around in Texas. Lots of roads and lots of emptiness. For me, the summer heat is worth dealing with to be able to live in such a place.

Plus, there are no Waffle Houses in the Pacific Northwest.

I don't know how summers are in TX but here (AZ), it cools down to around 105 at night time (which I guess you can say is cool compared to 120 during the day). You might be able to find a Waffle House, but you'll never be able to fine a Mo's Chowder here in the desert Southwest. Also I think Oregon has plenty of open space (of a different scenery), I can't wait to move back someday!

I'd consider moving back to Oregon someday, but not one of the big cities. Portland was okay for a while, but I've come to the conclusion that major cities aren't for me. I'd totally move to some isolated Oregon town. Places like Drain and the little towns on/near the coast are stunning. Eastern Oregon is cool too. I'd totally disappear into someplace like Fossil.

I have nothing against Oregon as a whole. Portland just wasn't for me. I'd visit it again and have a good time for a week or so, but living in it was kind of a pain in the ass.
