Thats crazy. I lived in West Virginia once for a couple of years, it was hot and humid like that. Never again.

We'll often sit at single digits humidity wise. It was probably around that when you were in Vegas a few years back.

Yes, the humidity in Vegas was almost non existent, and it was very pleasant. As for our high humidity here…it’s the joys of living in a sub tropical/tropical zone. I hate the humidity, it destroys me. I’d move elsewhere if I could, but I can’t because I’d be on my own.

The week I’ve just spent in Sydney (1K km south), and where I grew up, really opened my eyes to the climate there. I’ve always thought that Sydney was a more comfortable climate, but the week I spent there was horrendous with very hot days and humidity. I don’t remember this when growing up. I suppose it didn’t help that I was working my butt off moving furniture etc.

We have had a fairly pleasant winter here in Minnesota. But a couple of cold snaps that got us down to the -25 F. I sure hate those morning its getting harder and harder to go to work.

From the sounds of that young Wiersay, you will be riding either a motorcycle or a horse to work mate.

A horse would be ok so long as you stay off the ice and keep to the snow. However, if it’s a motorcycle, I would suggest getting an ice racing bike like they race in Norway and Russia Very Happy

…those things are outstanding on ice. I suppose the big mongrel spikes on the tyres help a lot though.

It's been near 70° here for several days. "They" were calling for snow tonight but I think the forecast has changed to just rain.

I realized that I really screwed up by not taking advantage of those warm dry days to do more stuff outside!
