I think most of us would.I woke up to an outside temperature of 39F.
It is raining and 42F right now (11:30am). Brrrrrr.
PF, you can have this cold stuff, I'll take sunny and 70, please.

I think most of us would.
Here, on the Island of Montreal, QC, it's light rain and 9°C (48°F) and feels like 6°C (43°F).
Rain.
Just rain. then more rain. It's starting to look like Portland around here. Soggy people on bicycles with energetic causes but little actual experience...
Just kidding.
My lawn looks great, though. The weeds have been replaced with moss. Much nicer looking.
A refreshing 40°F. I miss the 70s (oh, and the music too).
I remember walking to school in those winds. You had to lean really far into the wind to make any headway. What's your temperature like?It's been pretty miserable here with the dreaded Santa Ana Devil Wind.
Humidity is down to 4%, enough to suck out any body moisture, not to mention the fear of fire with no rain since March. Down right scary here after dealing with the horrible Thomas Fire in December.
64 F today. We just planted a variety of lettuces and rainbow chard over the weekend.Currently 8°C (46°F) and feels like 5°C (41°F). And for tonight (from email):

I found a way to make the rain stop, and the temps become colder, more fall-like.
I scheduled a landscape service to do a core aeration and overseeding. So, of course the rain stops and the temps drop.
Never fails.
Although, the landscraper guys were supposed to come today and they didn't show. This was after I spent two hours making 55 little flags, then turning on each lawn sprinkler zone in the basement, running outside and marking the heads with the little flags all around the property, zone by zone, so they wouldn't run over and damage the sprinkler heads.
Grrrrrr.
