I like the SF Bay area of CA. Except when a major winter storm blows through, if I don't like the weather I can drive 20 minutes in any direction and find different weather.
During winter storms, I might have drive an hour or two to hit different weather.
That's cool I always thought I'd like CA weather

It's rare, but it does happen (mostly at the end of July and beginning of August). We have a pretty extreme range, It's been 20 below or more sometimes in the winter. I blame most of it on Lake Michigan, it does crazy stuff to the weather.
That is a major range! I'm not sure I'd like quite that much variety .

You just have to get used to it. And as a college student it is hilarious watching southerners in colder weather. Winter (real winter, where it snows for days, wind chill below zero) is a bit of a shock to a lot of them. Or a blizzard, those suck.

I'm sure it is -- I can imagine myself dealing with "real" winter -- it wouldn't be pretty. I might have to find a nice warm padded cell .

Also good. Even if we have some cold weather that doesn't mean we're stupid enough to go out in it without any padding. I would actually be much happier sitting inside, drinking a warm beverage (probably hot chocolate-I'm not a fan of coffee), and watching the field of white outside the window.

LOL! I didn't mean that you'd just go sit in the snow -- my "padded cell" reference meant that I'd go crazy if there were too many days where you couldn't go outside . However, I do like to drink hot cocoa and watch snow (however rare it may be here).

I knew what you meant. I have a habit of purposely misinterpreting what people say. It's quite fun actually. But I haven't found something that's as entertaining as having a snowball fight, or maybe I'm just a bit childish.
