In Kyoto right now...Supposed to be 18 degrees today, slight chance of clouds.

Good lord I don't miss Calgary weather.

Hey, I was down there today too. But unfortunately we missed the nice weather and got there after it had really started to cool off...

I just drove home from downtown. Wasn't a lot of fun with the blowing snow and people driving like 40 km/h in an 80 km/h zone. Get off the road!

Are you being serious? 48 is like 9 degrees Celsius. That's shorts and sandals weather where I come from!

And when you're crouched in a doorway with the ground shaking beneath your feet, you'll say: "At least it's not a snowstorm."

I just had a look outside......

What a depressing sight!

Just glad i don't have to go anywhere tomorrow. The roads are going to be filled with idiot drivers.

I'm glad I don't have to go anywhere too cause losers will still go to the MALL for no reason and jam up the roads.

But it does look pretty outside

Today, Spring Break started. Today, Mother Nature decided to s**t on us. FML.

When I was younger, I was always severely confused when watching American TV shows, where Spring Break would be filled with bathing suits and sun-tanning... because this weather right here is what I'm used to in March.

And for some reason I volunteered to shovel the sidewalks tomorrow to get out of washing dishes. Why? That's what I'm wondering right about now.

Yah, cold starts around -3 or -4 celsius (25 F). If you don't like temperatures between that and 10 degrees, you'd never survive fall/winter/spring/part of summer here.

I do feel sorry for people like this Somali couple that lives on the 4th floor of my building, though - when it got down near -30 I saw him practically running across the street to get inside one day, as I think he thought he was in imminent danger of just dying right there. I can't even imagine what it would be like to go from a tropical climate to that kind of cold.

What? Isn't that still in the +'s in celcius? That's not even close to being cold.

Edit: It's 8.9 celcius.

This dude needs to grow a pair.

Yeah thats like +7 degrees. +7 degrees down here is sort cold.

I feel like a California bum now, if its below 12 celcius I bring a jacket.

Just drove back from Canmore. Roads were great and weather was fine until I started climbing up Scott Lake Hill-- it was like I hit a wall of snow and I had to slow right down the rest of the way to Calgary. Stupid Snow.

Yeah, sorry, I just have to jump on the bandwagon that's making fun of you.

My limit for cycling to work is 5 Fahrenheit.

Wuss.

Ive lived in Cali for 9 years and been in only 2 earthquakes, 1 I didn't even know happened (it was so small I didnt feel it), and the other one I felt but it didn't cause any damage.

So yeah Id rather have earthquakes and 20 Degree Celcius weathers than snowstorms in March.
