Jafo - I'll trade a Canadian winter for an Australian one any day! Much of our "summer" is only 12 to 20 C. Today we're gonna get 30C (just above 90F for our American readers).

Makes one want to take a day off work!

Garry, you live in Alberta? Never been there. But here in Quebec, summer is just as suffocatingly hot as winter is dead cold. 25 to 35 is what our summer is like, over here. 25 more often than 35 for sure, but we do hit the 35's a few times every summer.  As I said, last Thursday was even 45 over here.

Well, here in Tacoma -- America's Wired City *cough* -- the weather is fine, it's just everything else: The head of the gazillion dollar sex offender complex has been charged with an assault, the DC sniper got his gun at the big Tacoma gun shop, the chief of police shot and killed his wife and himself in a grocery store parking lot -- in front of his kids, the city manager who appointed him gets a bigger salary than the mayor of Seattle or the governor of the state, the state has just cut phone bill assistance to the poor and disabled ...

but the weather is great! I love this climate! In order to *get it*, you need to spend time at the ocean. This is a very unique climate. Because of the north to south range of mountains, the "beach" weather rolls in for over 150 miles, hits the mountains and then rolls back. Because of the shape of the mountains, where the weather rolls back can mean a different climate as ofen as every fifty miles.

What I love is that the Japanese current sends in the weather and it changes fast enough to change the look of the day every 15 minutes.

I don't know why people complain about the weather here, as it rarely threatening. It is a maritime climate and my grandfather taught me to love all of it. It can look severe, but it is very mild and I go out in all of it. I notice over the years that I instinctively get out in every sunny day for sure and I have found that it is enough for the year, but if you miss going out in too many of them, you will be whining, for sure. We don't have an abundance of them, so spend them wisely.

The local television station has a "severe weather center". What a joke... It's an incredibly sensuous, dancing and mild weather. I have coats from my stay in NYC that are still in the plastic 15 years later. I never need them...

What are you people complaining about??

Your right. I did a quicky in my head. Probably need new batteries.

Paxx:

I've been to TO in the summer - the humidity is brutal and I suppose Quebec is about the same. I've heard horror stories about Quebec winters. At least in Alberta it's dry. And we gots Chinooks!
