Tomorrow night the forecast calls for -25 f with a wind chill of -65 f. And to think I have to get up at 5:00 am to go to work. Is it spring yet?
This is why I don't live where there are blizzards. I can't imagine getting up in the wee hours to face the freezing cold to dig out the car to go to a job I really would rather not do... :)
I prefer the cold weather to mudslides, wildfires, earthquakes....etc. Campgrounds are quiet, good hiking, (snoeshoes) ice fishing,
Don't get me wrong. I prefer cold weather. I just don't find cold and blizzards conducive to having to go to work...
Earthquakes are minimal in quantity. You might experience one big one in a lifetime and that doesn't guarantee you'll have any damage, etc.
Wildfires are bad, but still not as common as tornadoes and hurricanes. Once a wildfire has gone through an area, it will be quite a while before it goes through that area again.
Mudslides usually come after a bad wildfire, but again, once it happens it will take a long time to happen again. - agesilausExplorer III

Rain forcast for tomorrow, tnmps in the high 50's.
Lets see, no cold weather in Southern CA, but you have Earthquakes, Fires and Mudslides and the CA government. Rest assured we don't hate you. - D_E_BishopExplorerToday is 1-31-19 and we are on the beach just below Vandenberg AFB. Current temp outside is 61 degrees, About what it has been since 1-27-19.

I blame Canada. Nice neighbors but they are a bit cold at times. :)
Most cold winds come out of the north west, that sir is Alaska. It just passes through Canada on its way down.
We don’t even charge taxes or duty on it in transit through Canada, as long as it’s not carrying any firearms, raw chicken, or fresh fruit or vegetables. Hehehe. - VeebyesExplorer II

This may help - Great Weather Map
Great weather map. Only problem is I cannot find myself. Not even a little dot to show where Bermuda is. Bummer. - VeebyesExplorer IILovely day today after 2 days of epic rain & thunder. T shirt weather. Got my pressure washer out & cleaned my front yard wall, walkway & driveway. Really got ambitious & fixed cracks in cement wall & driveway.
Outside painting planned for tomorrow. - toedtoesExplorer III

That's what I do. And I drive 35 miles each way on a nasty highway to do it. We only moved 30 miles north of where we were but it is colder and snowier.
I have a friend up north who would email me in the morning before leaving for work. He'd always sign off with "have to go dig the car out so I can go to work" - made me very grateful to be able to go out and just occasionally have to defrost the windshield and drive just 6 miles no freeway.
