For Info :
40 degrees - Californians shiver uncontrollably.
People in Scotland sunbathe. This is inaccurate. Californians - at least, in SoCal - think 65 degrees is "arctic". Thin-bloods, they are. |

I should move to Scotland. I love cold, cloudy days.
Me too. It was pretty nice when I was there, getting down to 12 when I was in Edinburgh for some reason. Maybe because the queen was there the day before. I think it was colder in Edinburgh than Kirkwall (Orkney). |
Why am I homeless? Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

As for the Glasgow and the Clyde Estuary, that's warm by Scottish standards. North Atlantic Drift and all that. Palm nuts wash up along the shore, resulting in seaside towns with rows of palm trees along the shore. Don't think of white sandy beaches or anything - rocks and oil slicks are more our thing. There's some sand down in Ayr, where the forecast for tomorrow is rain.

Paradoxically, the biggest temperature pansies I know are from the midwestern/eastern US. In summer they complain that it's too cold, and in winter they complain that it's too warm. |

Hehe that thing is also overestimating floridians tolerance for cold. I was down there once and they had wind chill warnings and it was all of 42F outside. Thats windbreaker weather at best in wisconsin. Many would still be sporting shorts if its 42 our.

When I was driving for a courier company I put snow chains on my truck while wearing shorts. Cold doesn't really bother me much.

Don't be so sure, WAP. Elderly men, such as yourself, sometimes don't feel the cold. One minute you're putting snow chains on their truck while wearing shorts and the next thing you know... POOF!... you're dead.

I still find it amusing that the only day my college ever closed due to weather it was because it was so cold that you physically could not make it from the parking lot to the doors without getting frostbite on exposed skin.
