Bullshit. I lived in Phoenix for a year and the summer months are horrible. I'd rather deal with single digit cold Ohio than 100+ temps (before 9AM) like Phoenix has for most of the year.lhslep134;1694027 wrote:When it's actually not as bad as the perception.

I like Belly's post - seasons are good for the soul. I know I would take the summer for granted if that's all I ever got. I have been to Florida and Arizona in the summer and both are as miserable as this in a different way. Now Southern California has just about perfect weather. The problem there is the people....

You can live in Ohio, understand what winter is like, and still think it sucks that it's this freaking cold.Pick6;1694294 wrote:Most of us live in Ohio...it gets cold in the winter. Get over it.

Friggin was near white-out conditions this AM. A heck of a snow shower came through. A good Wind and blowing snow we already had you could only see a few feet in front of your car.

I'm not much a fan of it myself. But if I didnt like it as much as some people who complain then I think I'd move instead of complaining about it every year.Fab4Runner;1694359 wrote:You can live in Ohio, understand what winter is like, and still think it sucks that it's this freaking cold.

I'm more than ok with this weather. Was able to get the boards setup on my buddy's pond and the ice is now about 7" thick which is more than enough for hockey games

Sounds like Dayton was spared. Milder air pushed more north than expected and kept a lot of the area with rain for the most part. Further north in your area may be different though.salto;1695195 wrote:: thumbup:

Up in NC Ohio, we got off easier (so far, at least) than expected. Was supposed to be a winter advisory until 4, but shortened to noon and things are more slushy than slippery. Back roads are worse, but that's no surprise. It was a lot worse driving on Friday morning than today.

Same story in Akron. We got a couple inches, but the roads were far better than they were last week. It was just wet and slushy.Heretic;1695259 wrote:Up in NC Ohio, we got off easier (so far, at least) than expected.
