Angry Irony Sucks

I'm a Cloudy, Foggy, Rainy, Snowy Person and like it below 75 Degrees.

I happen to be living in Sacramento, California which in irony isn't seeing all the Stuff everyone else is getting. I think this: SUCKS!!!

... It's been seeing Mostly Clear & Sunny Weather and is being in moderation with the temperatures. 10 degrees above normal. When we should be in the 30's, we are in the 40's. Or Highs in the 50's, we are reaching just under 70 degrees.

Default winters comming on

well, its near midnight, sitting here in shorts, nothing else, doors and windows wide open, blasted mozzies buzzing around, annoying the heck outa me, should spray the room, close it up, turn air con on, go for a swim, cool down, ( pool is 3 meters away )
ah well, its nearly winter, autumn began a cple days ago, things should soon cool down, marginally.
air temps prob about 25 celcius right now ( about 80 farenheit ) but it is midnight, and nights dont get much cooler than day temps, pretty much all year round.
thats sub tropical for ya.

well, the beer and vino is down to about 4 degrees, thats only cos i have a huge energy non-efficient general electric americana 2 door fridge,
i could perhaps send you a 'coldie '
but really, blue sky every day for months on end, surf beaches, beutiful babes just a hop away can get to be a pain. its soo repetitive,
you near dream and drool over what it would be like to see an overcast cold day where you actually had to think about what it would take to get warm, rather than cool down.
we are restricted to playing in the surf, swimming near all day, eating tropical fruit, ( coz heavy food near sends you to sleep in the heat ) wandering the huge air con shopping centers, or closed away in our houses 24/7 just to keep cool.
gee, lifes tough huh?
point i am making? , its only what you make it, and even so called 'paradise' can get to be hard to take.
come on downunder and try it sometime..

Mate, I'm further downunder than you...

Actually we've had it really good(except for the farmers) the last few months- it's only been the last last week it's cooled off and started raining again.

Currently -13�F (-25�C). We're quite a bit more "sub-tropical" than the other places posted so far. For March this is fairly cold. It is time for weather to beging warming up.

Summer, on the other hand, is beautiful. 90�F is a "very hot" day, in the middle of summer there is 16 hours between sunrise and sunset. And summer is coming up soon.

yeah, saw you was furthur downunder than me, like Tassie way..
could send you a carton of 4 x - its a good light beer, not heavy like draught.. etc. and great in warmer climates. - nevermind that the Kiwis own the company huh?, dont think they have changed the recipie too much. lol
but hey, the Kiwis dont have the Americas cup no more, the Swiss have got it, lol, hardly matters that most of the crew were Kiwi mercanaries with a few Aussies chucked in to lend a hand huh?
what a joke, big boy dollars playing to win the game at all costs huh? like, sheez, Switz doesnt even have access to the ocean, just a millionaire prepared to wager his dollars..?
and sailors prepared to sail, for any country, cept thier own..

It's below freezing here, but there's no wind and the sun is shining enough to make the ice slick.

Beer is not proper in weather this cold (the bladder factor). Brandy makes it bearable (and I hate hot weather).

Beer here, with a slight chance of hats tonight. Tommorow, partly sock, with a good chance of beer going into the evening.
