Noticing the Year: 01/08/08

[urbpan]

On npr today, the weather in New Hampshire was described as "unseasonably bearable."

In Boston we hit a new record: 66 degrees! (that's 19 c) Everyone likes that. It's probably one of two dozen days a year in Boston that's within 5 degrees of 70. (It drives me crazy when people say they like it when it's 70: It's never 70. I want to tell these people "then never go outside.") Last year at this time (when it only got up to about 63 or so) I wore shorts to work and got myself a vulture bite. The vultures I work with now are chickens compared to old Orville.

I wish it would just stay one temperature range for more than a week. I keep getting sick from these whild temp swings.

That wouldn't be very New Englandy!

Come to the Cape! It's 70 here more often than not.

Only in the middle of the summer when it's supposed to be hot!

This is true, but people who say they love it at 70 generally dislike both extremes. At least we only have one semi-extreme, and hardly any snow. (Wind, though, we've got that. Hehe.)
