COLD
Here I go with more pissing and moaning about the weather which will undoubtedly earn me another "Suck it up, you thin-blooded biyatch" comment from Canuckistanian Corey the next time we're iChatting.
We're in the middle of a nasty cold snap here in the Northeast -- some of the coldest weather on record in the last 20 years, the meterologists are saying. This is a sharp contrast to December, which was snowy but not particularly cold. And it sucks.
Today the weather hasn't gotten out of the single digits (Farenheit) -- about 15-18 below zero for you commie metric users out there -- and it won't tomorrow, either. In fact, tomorrow is expected to be so cold -- - 35 F/-37 C with the wind chill -- that they've pre-emptively cancelled school for the day.
Let me reiterate this. They've already cancelled school for Friday -- not because of snow, but because of cold.
I am *so* ready to move to a warmer climate on days like today.

You're welcome to join me at MacWorld Barbados next winter. The expo will run from Christmas to March and feature a keynote from the Women of Hawaiian Tropic. I'd register soon, since the Pina Colada track always fills up early.
Freeverse will have a hammock in the games area.
Man, I hate the cold too.

It didn't snow in Dallas this year, not even freezing rain. If you don't mind the endless hot summer, which lasts pretty much 8 months, moving south is really worth considering.
Food is good and, overall, living costs are a little lower (except for utilities). On top of that, there's a 34% projected economic growth until 2010 in this area, just about 30% more than the national average. You can find a decent 3 bedroom house in a nice neighborhood for about $130k.

34 isn't exactly swimming weather, but the beaches in southern VA are still very pretty at this time of year. Come on down!
