i was wondering if anyone wants to talk about how the weather and climate is in your state. i always like learning about new areas :D
i live in the north centrel area of the u.s. the summers are really hot and the winters are either extremely cold or really mild. it doesnt snow much but when it does it really snows :-*
Me and my bro live in Nevada. It hardy ever rains here, or snows, and alot when summer comes here it gets hot. So yeah, we live in a desert even though it doesn't look like it. But when fall gets here it starts smelling like Halloween (Smells good) and starts getting chilly. Then when winter comes we don't get any snow for Christmas. XPP Which sux. My Christmas last year would've been complete if it snowed. But one time the snow was really deep.
Seems I live in a similar place Sess. I live in Northwest Ohio, so like Sess said, the summers are hot and the winters are bitter.
i dont like cold weather, im not talking about 30 or 20 degrees.. it gets below zero in the winter with the wind chill, then i go out to help my brother shovel and the plows like to plow all the snow on our slab ::) so its really heavy. not even two jackets keep me warm
Uhh... I'd just like to point out the redundancies of the statement of summer being hot. I mean, summer is HOT EVERYWHERE!
Even in Canada!
North Carolina and mostly temporate. Falls are cool, but can get fairly cold... Though Nowhere near as cold as places in the far north (Read: Tundra Wastelands) like Ohio, Canada, or southern florida. :P
We have stuff in the teens during the winter. So, it's not TOO cold, but still pretty cold.
Washington. that should explain all the weather details :-*
hot and really humid :-* the dew point was 70 something this morning (or yesterday)
I don't really know "were" I live, but I do know where I live. I live in Pennsylvania.
oh fine i'll fix it :-* err nevermind..
oh i missed your post Shikamaru, whats Washington like, cold and rainy?
Were I live I would probably be pretty embarassed. I mean, could you imagine messing up in front of all those people? Pre-recorded would be much easier, I would think.
Edit: Grr, why'd you fix it? Such insolence! >:(
That's mean Whocares. 8)

No wonder you had to fix your big black truck in our backyard!! XPP
were suposed to have allot of rain through tonight and tomarrow morning
The weather in michigan is weird, it goes from hot to cold in seconds flats.
I love cold and rainy days. PA has more-than-none of them, though not alot.
I like the rain, but I hate cold...
I didn't mean cold like freezing, but rain-weather cold.
I also like the snow we get.
i like watching it rain but i hate storms at night :-[
Omg, I love thunderstorms. :D
there cool in the day time, but i hate them at night. after this one really bad storm we had they scare me :( i really just hate severe ones and storms with allot of lightning because my room has many big windows
I like watching little kids be scared of them, haha, its funny to see looks of their face's. ;D
Big windows eh? That'd be quite fun... You take a peek out there and it's like your floating on the clouds and the ground just disappears. VERTIGO!!!
it'd be very fun to see that, go all around and embrace your fears in the carnival of terrors!
Why dost thou show no love for autumn?
I love it when it storms during the day, I prey for the power to go out so we can go home. ;D
i dont like fall because gross hornets come out, and their mean too ???
Northern Illinois - thundery, humid, and crappy. :-*
But... what about the atmosphere?
Pretty average. Warm in spring, hot in summer, cool in fall, and cold in winter.

what it looks like?
the trees turn gold and red in about october. it doesnt get too cold until november.. i cant think of anything else. there was this stupid dead tree that our neigbor had and it was like fall all year.. its gone now
Staten Island, New York... it's sunny most of the time, but on occasion we get alot of rain or a really severe thunderstorms....
In the winter, it's icy cold. Like -10 sometimes. In the fall, its mild and the trees change all these beautiful colors, like yellows and reds and oranges. The spring is a bit hot, and everything blooms and makes my allergies go crazy. And the summer's tend to be hot too. Only sometimes, we have strecthes of mild weather.
We haven't had rain in ages, its hard to belive the green on our golf course hasn't became known as a Brown, because everyother place with "grass" is brown.
I live in south Texas, and it's a fairly nice place in the winter and fall, however, it's humid in the spring, and just plain HOT in the summer! However, this summer was weird, since it rained a lot, and we are well over the yearly average now.
man, and too think I thought Texas was a desert basically. ;D
That's just the steryotype of Texas. West Texas is fairly dry, but the eastern half is pretty green most of the year, unless there's a drought. Then the grass turns rough and brown.
Yeah, normally here in old fairview michigan, its usually wet, but for some reason, its all dry this year. which is not normal.
I live in Washington. The climate doesn't change severly. 30's (lowest) in winter and 90's (highest) in the summer. We get a lot of rain it makes the air quality nice and generally keeps wind cooler.
I think michigan's lowest is like below zero ;D
it gets way below zero here
I live in Southern Texas, as well... Rockport/Fulton, a tiny little art (and drinking) town that's so small we had to shove two towns together. I live on a peninsula just outside of the city limits, though. My grandma's house is in Wetlands, and it's even further out.
It's hot and humid...
ALWAYS.
And yes, it has rained a lot. In San Antonio, we were leaving a Burger King, and a gigantic swarm of locusts landed on our truck while we were eating; we had to leap into the truckbed and drive around in circles to get them off so we could get in.
By the way, there is no such thing as a Wendy's or a Burger King here. Not a single (decent) burger joint. We have to go to Whataburger or, god forbid, McDonald's.
And for being an art town, there is not a single place to even buy markers. We used to have one, but then LOL WALGREENS. ^^ I hate having to travel for half an hour to reach a Hobby Lobby after being dragged everywhere else by my parents just so I can buy more paint.
As my sister stated, we live in Nevada. (It's pronounced Nuh-va-duh, by the way, not Neh-vaw-duh.) So far, we've had no rain whatsoever this spring and summer, and the once or twice it did rain, there was just barely enough to make the sidewalk wet, but it evaporated as soon as the sun came out. Winters are a hit-or-miss, snow-wise, but when it snows, it's usually pretty decent. We once had snow over three feet deep! That was so much fun! I remember we had to go to my Grandpa's house to get the snow off the roof of the barn. We could literally jump off of the roof and not get hurt with all the snow! It seems like we alternate every year between having snow and not having snow at Christmas. Summer usually gets pretty hot, but having no precipitation at all this year, combined with this area's tendency towards high winds and all of the dry lightning storms we've been having makes us a good candidate for wildfires. We've had several major ones around here this year alone. I guess this pretty much tells you what kind of climate we have.
We barely get any rain here, but when it does, it doesn't stop Untill like the next day. ;D

You said that better than me, man! Eh oh well. I suck at describing things.
We finally got alot of rain, well, normally it wasn't much, but compared to what we haven't been getting, it was a lot!
I heard from my grandpa that it was a half-inch of rain. Not much, but certainly not bad compared to what we've (FYI, I was visiting up there at the time; "we've" is appropriate) been getting.
Im pretty sure I pretty much just said that, in different words though..
well, I'm from the good old UK. Northern England. Home of imperialist socialists. Wet, mild, undeniably British.
is it like that all the time there? lol
actually, it wasn't wet this morning. for once.
lol, we need alot of wet here.
its been raining almost non stop for 3 days now, today we have scattered showers :-*
Tropical Storm Erin hit us. An acquaintance of mine got a photo of the damage:

Terrible, isn't it?
Anyways, it hasn't been raining here for a bit... when Hurricane Dean hits, we should get some rain.
Dean should hit Mexico, however, the Government has to be redundant, and send my dad and his coworkers (they work as contracters for the Government as disaster relief coordinators), to COLORADO! Apparently that's where that branch's base is.

are those puddles :? im sick of the rain, but.. it not like i could go outside anyways... with all the gross hornets everywhere :-* yesterday we went to this place, its like a giant rummage sale place... no one was there selling anything. theres a building and they had katanas and daggers for sale but they were 2x the price i could get them online. anyways its kinda fun to be outside when its raining.
Its hard to believe it was once over 100 degrees here last week, now its all cold like, I hate cold...
Tropical storm? HA! Over here it rains sharp metal shards!

You know your nation has an issue with pollution when...
no, it's on a mobile phone advert, saying "now we all have more time" as it rains sharp metal shards (clock parts). Try looking for it on youtube- T mobile ad, metal shards, more time, etc. (I think it's T mobile)
well its sunny for the morning anyways, but its too humid to stay outside :-* and theres possible severe weather comming later in the day 8)
Metal shards? Bah! You need to live in Farnley before you experience true rain, the sort that causes brain haemorrhages and kills more live stock a year then drunken lads with sharp pointy sticks.
now now. You're used to extremes, aren't you, Davvy? I mean, you hang around with me... oh, btw, I'm getting you a collar for your birthday. Because I'm already getting two (one for me and another to be sent around the world)
Oh God no... I can't believe you just said that Bob... You called me Davvy!!! I demand compensation for mental damages!!! Back on Subject, the weather's been a bit odd lately. It no longer seems to follow a pattern of seasons. Just goes hot and cold when it wants to. It's really messing up the wildlife...
that's it, I'm gonna nuke america and all that to fix the poor birds.
South-East England, woo!
The past few days the weather has been having a jolly good laugh, it makes it freezing in the morning, so all the little year 7's get all wrapped up, then around lunchtime it heats up again so all the little year 7's get in a terrible fluster over where to put their scarves...
I wish it would decide if it wants to be hot or cold, I need a new coat.

I second that emotion!
Of course, Nuclear winter would pretty affect everybody.
WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!
at last! enough messing around, lets end this pathetic planet already.
Or we could calm down and wait for America to rip itself apart from the inside out. That could work. Unless they get Russia REALLY angry and Russia gets there first...
