Pellice Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Not everyone hates humidity. Yes, 90+ humidity is unsuited for much except lemonade or cold beer, a chaise lounge, and a magazine, but it's 76F with 100% humidity, which feels SO GOOD to me. Joints fully mobilized, dry nose cured, and feeling like a cool princess. (with the acknowledgement that the majority here likes it at 65F with a cold, dry airmass). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s actually a reasonable outlook. Cold & mild in the right places for a La Nina winter and/or -PDO regime though i would lean much drier across the south and EC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 @donsutherland1 I have even more evidence of major flaws in the WeatherBell versions of the CFS: the following post examines the cold E US WB 0Z 8/16 CFS run maps for 8/16-20 with a focus on DC, which show a whopping 6.5 BN. That compares to the only 2 BN being forecasted by the DC NWS office! Also, I show a WB 0Z 8/16 CFS run map for 8/16-22, which shows a whopping 8BN at DC (other recent runs are similar) vs NN on the avg of the last 12 TT runs! Finally, I show a TT 12 run avg CFS Sep-Nov map with mainly AN E US for autumn, which I’m comparing to cold autumn WB CFS maps that has been posted by the person I was responding to: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But florida and texas are hard no for me still lol There are definitely things we like here but the kids aren't sure where they will wind up but since my Sean works for American and this is their headquarters odds are... He equates it to being stuck inside with heat in the winter up north, they say when it's hot like this you just stay in the AC and pool. And in his case when he wants to see snow he just hops on a flight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Yeah we have a similar conundrum, FL and TX are out of the question as is most everything south of I70 but we want the beach. We can't afford CA or HI (or Long Island for that matter) so the options are limited. Cape Cod is probably off the affordable list too so... ME or OR? ME is cold for too long so it's not really like being on the beach but it's also close to the mountains. Southern OR is high on the hit list too. At this point we're pretty sure we want the beach but I have to have ez access to the mtns and skiing. Could we deal with AZ or NM? Probably but it's kinda dry. Throwing it out there to see what the hive mind here comes up with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go north a bit by Flagstaff it cools off plus they get alot of snow Colorado would be my pick but obviously very far from any oceans. Love the Durango area. Beautiful summers and snowy winters but not frigid We also like coastal Delaware. Not alot of snow but still 4 seasons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gravity, I always wanted to exist in a place where I could look out and see the ocean then turn around and see mountains in the distance. Maine would be my choice. Perhaps the rapidity of the changing climate zones will make Maine a viable option. With a good partner and the time to enjoy …. I somehow think ‘too cold’ will never be a problem for both of you.

Coulda used a bit more wave action for my kids to boogie board but it was perfect, especially considering it was raining in Kona when we left this morning. Headed to Oahu for a few days before we head home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These areas are a little less accessible from the big cities, but still quite wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravitylover Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Sort of but $. The RI coast is another silly expensive zone and it gets too crowded. CT and the Sound don't do it for me, yeah it's better east but not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
