This handy conversion chart gives a good idea of why I’m so thrilled when the weather gets cold… And why I’m so impatient with school “late starts” and cancellations:

Us Girls..Our Views 
When I read this I felt lucky we dont have to endure such winters. We have three seasons—hot, very hot and very very hot . Only the northern part of our country experience chill or snow fall during winter .
I would absolutely shrivel up, if I lived somewhere that was hot-hot-hot all the time. I need my snow!
Me too Laura. People can say how much they love AZ but give me our states any day of the week. I think no changes would be so boring.
