Very rarely get snow, it gets cool enough in the winter where it feels like we have a fall and a spring with highs being anywhere from 45-65, summer gets warm and humid but there's always a good breeze with beaches and water everywhere. People will say San Diego, but they get the May Gray and June Gloom. May is glorious here and June has been fantastic.

You can’t even go in the pool. They clearly prefer cool weather.

I love it. I work outside on the balcony during the summer until the sun comes over and it gets too warm. Evenings are beautiful.

It's nice but I prefer NC outer banks where it's not quite as hot in the summer.

I am one of those people

Though the fall & winter weather was fantastic when I lived in coastal GA, would imagine the Lowcountry is similar

My boss lives in Aitken. He said it was plenty cold enough in winter and hot now. Not as bad as Houston, but not ideal.

Chicago summers


I lived there for twenty years and there is no better summer city in the world. Yes, I said it. But it can get uncomfortably hot there in the summer too.

It is

When I lived in Chicago I would get this dread/anger when it would be October and the badgers would be kicking off in 45 degrees with drizzle and then the SEC game would come on with 80 degrees and sundresses galore.

I'm not a fan of the eastern time zone. That low country boil they claim is so great is not great.

Heat index was over 110 today before some recent scattered storms went through.

Just let us know if you happen to run into Cameron Eubanks from Southern Charm. Very underrated.

People underestimate heat in the Midwest. fricking corn sweat makes the humidity Louisiana like half the time and it's in the upper 80's/low 90's.

It ain't South Louisiana, but it gets downright miserable here in Northern, IN during the peak summer sometimes.

IMO, I still need AC at 72 degrees outside.

Sidebar, we’d lose all the AC/HVAC threads if this were the case!

I’ve been drinking beers by the pool all day. Never felt overly hot.

I don’t think she was ever underrated. Total babe. I was at the gamewatch Friday and Sally was there, not wearing a bra. Very attractive. Craig was also right by us for a while and he’s oxidativ objectively a smokeshow #nohomo

I’ve seen all of them around town a bunch.

Buddy took a picture with Craig for his mom.
