Im currently rocking low 80s for highs and low 40s for lows.

We're in a heat wave too.

Oh our winter is long and cold as hell, why do you ask?

Most coastal areas from central Cali to San Diego.

The best thing is we don't get the humidity of the south and east coasts.

We're considering moving out of the South in the next few years.

San Diego

In the world: the climate in Bogota Colombia looks amazing. Average high every month of the year 65-70. Average low 45-50.

I don't agree with a lot of the politics and hate how the states are run but Northern California and Coastal Oregon are both amazing areas.

I live in Florida right now and it feels like the surface of the sun right now. Once my parents are gone (my work in here in Florida and my parents do the snowbird thing) I would absolutely love to have two residences.

Half of the year in southern West Virginia, western North Carolina, eastern Tennessee or upstate South Carolina and then half of the year in Northern California, coastal Oregon, Idaho or Montana.

In all honestly if Northern California (north of San Francisco) and Southern Oregon (no Portland or Eugene) could break away and actually form the state of Jefferson I would honestly be there in a second. Great weather, great climate, great scenery and moderate politics.

I looked up the temp for Medford yesterday and that shite said 102 degrees! Not heat index, legit 102! Mississippi felt like a furnace yesterday and the temp wasn't even as high (although the heat index was). Couldn't believe it.

They get heat waves every once in a while in the PNW but it's not the norm. Even when it gets up to 93, like it will today in Eugene, OR, it will be 57 tonight.

For me, probably coastal Oregon. 4 seasons with neither extreme. Temps range between 32-85 most years.


High average is 68

Lightening just struck the tennis courts opposite ours during our playoff match. Then a monsoon hit. Hoping we resume play at 1:00 but had to come home to change my tennis skirt bc I’m sure I peed a little when that happened. Every hair on my body was standing on end.

If you can make it work, the summers here are just plain incredible. It rarely gets in to the 90s, and even when it does, it just feels like you're getting baked by the sun, not sitting in a sauna. Most of the time, though, it might get in to the low 80s and feels great. Lows every night are in the 40s or 50s - always crisp and cool.

I enjoy the winters, outside of the freak days where it gets below -20 (it was -47 at my place right before Christmas), but I understand that and 400+ inches of snow is a hard sell for a lot of baws.

The record high on this date was 104 set back in 1902

Today’s high is 91

What did people do back then without Air Conditioning like we have these days?

Not really. The north coast is not the same. Crescent City, Eureka, Fort Bragg, Mendocino, Bodega Bay, Mill Valley, Sausalito, SF and Monterey are cold and foggy. Coastal Norcal is windy and gray for months at a time. The best areas for weather are inland about 20-30 miles. It's a narrow band of temperate climates before you hit the central valley and then it's too hot for a chunk of the year. Depends on the year though. This spring was cold and rainy, and everyone on my gardening groups is complaining that they lost their peach and plum crops. My elephant heart plum will have no fruit this year. It will be interesting to see how the vineyards produce.

Just a warning about Colorado Springs, it is really dry with high wind.
Pros
Fantastic views
90 degrees with no humidity feels great

Cons
It's high desert, so that means your lawn will die, especially with the new water restrictions.

Spring is my favorite season there. You get some rain showers for 15 to 30 minutes a couple times a week.

Early summer is a warmer version of spring, but the sun in late summer can really burn you in 10 to 15 min without sunblock

Fall is basically late summer with cold nights. It's not terrible.

Winter is super dry with cool days and very cold nights.

Once you get to late summer it stays drought until Spring.
The oldtimers say it used to rain a lot more through the year.
But with the growing size and new water restrictions you can kiss any green plants that are not pine goodbye.

This is the answer. And if you don’t care for the politics of California, know that San Diego is one of the most conservative cities in California due to the huge military presence so it has that going for it as well.

Santa Fe is pretty nice for 4 seasons.

Any southern places with elevation typically will be a huge step up from Louisiana.

Hawaii has pretty weather year round. Just have to watch for an occasional hurricane or volcanic eruption every so often. It is not cold unless you live on top of the mountains.
Since you are surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, it stays warm near the coasts of the islands.
