Ow.

Yesterday we were at 85. Today in the 70s. It's supposed to snow tonight. My bones and joints are very, very cranky.

Anybody else dealing with this?

1. we're holding pretty steady here with low 30s at night and high 40s during the day - Northern VT

2. One of the wonders of cannabis..

is that you feel so comfortable in any weather....

I love being in Colorado.

3. 94 in Mo today

same yesterday. Unsettling to say the least. And hot.

4. I wish. All that's in our future here in Dallas is heat, heat, heat. Months of it. The grass turns

brown, bushes wither, newly planted trees dry up. It's hell. Literally.

I really should move. But I can't drive in ice and snow, so where can I go? Is there a place that isn't scalding hot, but doesn't get much snow/ice?

6. Seattle. We don't know how to drive in ice and snow, either. :-) nt

16. I saw a tv show about Seattle once, regarding real estate. It's very expensive there?

The upshot of the program is that only the wealthy can afford to live anywhere decent. The real estate market has locked out middle class people.

19. It's unbelievable.

When there's a news article like "Britney Spears just put her $4 Million house on the market" - I'm thinking wow, that's pretty cheap! There are homes around me that are listed for over a million dollars, and this isn't what would be considered an upper-class neighborhood by any means. My street doesn't even have sidewalks!

There are homes quite a few homes listed for $10, $12, $19 Million, although they're in the tonier enclaves, but just the same!

The uber expensive homes fly off the shelves -- no lack of money here, apparently, but we normal people would be hard pressed to find something that would be considered fair and reasonable in other parts of the country. When I hear of home prices elsewhere I'm amazed at what you can get for "so little".

I live with my brother and his wife and they're renting this house, so I'm lucky. If I were looking to buy, well, I couldn't even entertain the thought.

8. Coastal California

Plenty of locations with temperate weather. Stay away from the beach towns and the cities, and there's still reasonable housing available.

11. Grass, are you in Norcal or SoCal?

I'm in the north but I'm in the Capitol.

[grasswire]

13. neither one

.....but I know that there is some very comfortable living in some communities and the weather is a great deal better than Texas.

[Honeycombe8]

14. Too expensive, unless a person has lived & worked there for years, getting high wages.

I already checked into CA years ago. I don't see how anyone can afford to live there, unless they worked there for years getting high wages.

18. AFIK, California real estate has taken a huge hit.

Sure, all the cities are still a mess.

Perhaps some Californians will weigh in.

12. Asheville NC is pretty nice..

Warm and humid in the summer but high enough in the mountains so it's not stifling hot, they get some snow but not that much.

15. Hmmmm. I need to check it out. nt

[1monster]

5. No. Just the opposite. It is hot here already. And my air conditioner bit the dust.

I don't have the $$$ to replace now. And my husband keeps turning it on due to some fantasy that if he can hear the fan running it is cooling he house.

Keep warm.

7. About 75 in L.A., but the wind is really making me miserable with allergies.

[grasswire]

9. where the heck are you?

That sounds miserable.

[madamesilverspurs]

10. Northeast Colorado.

March was the hottest on record. I grew up here, and well remember still wearing snowsuits in March and April.

[SammyWinstonJack]

17. The heat is on and only going to get worse.

So not looking forward to May June July August September.......

It's Satan called, he wants his weather back , deep in the heart of Texas.

20. all kinds o slushy fun

squish

21. Yep, the kids had a snow day today
