If mild climate is important to you, its worth remembering that Calgary's weather is a hundred times worse than Kelowna's and it isn't close.
If you like to spend time indoors especially in winter with your family then it may not be as big a deal. It depends on lifestyle.

Ok, i think your over the top on this, the quickest internet search will show that in the Jan/Feb timeframe on average its about twice as cold(not 100 times). As to -40, I think that has happened once since 1995.
I hate to single you out, but i have relatives in Kelowna and it almost seems like the common theme from the people who live in Kelowna is that it has Maui like weather. Now if we were to compare Kelowna to Maui then the "100 times better" adjective may apply.
I think we get it that its a nice place to live but lets not distort it for people that are looking for relevant information.
