Who else is ready for summer?

Not me. I just love freezing my *** off. Today we set a record 22 straight days with a low of 0 or lower.
Can't wait til 90* and 10% humidity.

Call me goldilocks, i don't want extreme heat or cold. Somewhere in the middle is perfect. Around 80. Low humidity. Good cruising weather. 65 to 70 for racing, maybe a little cooler. You start pushing 90 and it just takes the fun out of it. Sitting in a car in the staging lanes when your deep frying your *** off. No thanks.
 
its 9* as I write this ...high of 12* tomorrow AND lake effect snows coming this week ...... we have had a lot of gray days but not a lot of snow YET ...bright side we're going to my daughters in Alabama the end of Feb. and then two weeks in Florida :happy3: ..sunshine blue sky's and warm ...man I cant wait ..cars are hibernating till mid April
 
Yes I'm ready for the summer.... I live in the foothills so I have all 4 seasons here... I hate what winter does to everything, it seems that it just ruins everything, too much rain & even snow for my taste.... the only reason why I stay in Calif. is for the great weather... Also the older I get, the more I like warmer weather, I love the sun & summer, the 4th of July is my favorite holiday too, by far.. my B-Day is in July also... trout fishing, racing, cruising, car shows, swap meets, parades, founders day, rodeos etc. are all at their peaks in July also... I still like to Snow Ski, mainly for allthe snow bunnies...LOL...but I'm born & Raised Calif. Boy, I love the Surf & Sun most of all... Also here in NorCal we don't have the stifling 90% humidity like you'all guys in the south, mid-west or back east have, so the summer months here in parts of the Spring April or May, then traditionally summer starts June, July & August, sometimes September or even late into October Fall season or Indian summers, are much better out here in the Great Golden State, than the mid west, back east or south....... but like Pabster said "stay where you are", we have enough damn people & crazys here already, far too many for my liken' & mostly all from somewhere else, or born somewhere else, from some other state or country, there's very few Native Californians anymore, that are in my Native State of California... I can't wait for the Endless Summer....

I'm pretty sure that most of you guys out theres grandparents or great grandparents came from back east here...lol .... Besides cali is gonna fall off the edge of the country into the ocean someday ;) ....Ya I hate winter here, but if it's gotta be cold i wish we'd get some snow so i could ride/sell my snowmobiles.
 
I agree..Can always dress for the cold. The heat..strip down to your birthday suite and you're still drowning in your own stink and sweat.
-15 to -20 below without the windchill here tonight. Can't even imagine what the that will be (guessing -30 to -40). Ain't slowing me down. Got shrimp and steak to throw on the Weber this evening. At least the beer will be nice and cold. :icon_thumright:
You know Propwash, another way to look at what you said is yes it could be so hot you're down to your birthday suit sweating but then so will the ladies!!! I like the thought of that!
 
The hot can definatly be annoying but I have been at the other end of the spectrum working on the North Slope in Alaska where the ambient temps were sitting around -60 (yes below zero) and one day the reader board read -110!!!! I never knew it could get that cold! I couldn't dress enough for that cold. Even with plug in sorels my feet still got cold. SUCKED!!
So I think I'll take the "extreme" heat where everyone is either in minimal or NO clothes!! YEA!!!
 
I'm ready for Spring.
Here in Nor Cal, we dont suffer the extreme cold that other people endure, but what we do have is often cold enough to DEmotivate us. We just ended a cold snap of sub-30 degree mornings with daytime highs in the 40s. It may sound liveable to those in Buffalo or Minnesota, but not so much when you are used to 60 degree days.
Spring is a great time and I am looking forward to it.
 
It's darn near here this week. It was such a nice day yesterday I drove the hemi Charger to the store to try out the slightly richer primary jets. But we get to pay for this weather to the tune of insane property values.

Not sure what Pabster is talking about. The population of Canada is not in Cal. It is in LA and the SF bay area! The rest of the state is darn near empty.
 
For the most part, I never minded winter and this hasn't been a bad one so far, Its 5 degrees out now and has been snowing and blowing all night, school bus's didn't run well today but i do like the summer, today makes me think of them more. Im hearing on the news you folks north east of us are getting hit pretty good with the snow and cold, Erie Pa news said..
 
-13* here right now and just pitched another log on the fire.Couple more weeks then the temps will start going the other way.
 
It's more than just the Winter Blues.The cold weather & shorten days....too cold to go in the garage...I need the remedy for the Mopar Cabin Fever.
 
I need a few snow storms to build up the race budget for the season.BUT,soon as the weather breaks in the spring I'm going to a track rental for my competition licence.I've been stuck in the 10 oh's for way too long.A pulley change and some octane will put me right in the LOW 9's.

They were talking about a Nor'easter building off the east cost for this weekend on The Weather Channel. You may just get your wish.
 
The storm were getting now, isint no slouch! lol.. 7 for a high today and lots of snow and wind still going strong! Snowmobile-rs having a ball out there, they have been going by here all day.. Great weather for them, although seeing thru it probably isint easy at times..
 
Not ready yet. Just got the dash and seats pulled on my car. Gauge cluster is getting sent to the Gauge Doc and seats getting covers and foam.
Snow would be nice to get some miles on the sleds.
 
Wish I was closer Ron.....You'd see me joining the other snowmobilers out there. Yellow bottle rocket with a big grin going back and forth. Stay warm!
