  that’s what you get for not living in the US.

    Yeah the US never gets -1 or 101

    I have lived in Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and Iowa. We get the northern winds from Alberta. It sometimes gets kinda cold, Aay

  I’m similar, but two of the countries I’ve lived in are Australia (Victoria, central QLD and NorthWest WA) and the USA (Texas and Pennsylvania), so I’ve lived in 6 very different climates (also lived in the UAE)

  The only one of these that got even close to 0°f was Pennsylvania, which over a few years has a few nights that dropped below 20°f, which was slightly less common as Victoria and central QLD seeing 120°f. WA and UAE frequently saw 120°f in the summer, a similar rate to Texas seeing 100°f (where I was) this last summer.

  I doubt there are very many places where you’d reasonably expect to see 0°f and 100°f in the same year.

    Where I live now stays between 30 and 90F. I lived in Saskatchewan and it would go between -40 and 100F. Crazy weather.

    I grew up in Iowa which would see 0f and 100f every year easily. Now I live in Bangkok which is basically just 90-100 year round. I’m not sure Celsius helps either that much. But outside Iowa I haven’t cared much about the temp outside ever either.

      But Iowa gets well below 0f which is my point, people who say 0-100 encompasses outdoors temperatures well live in a very specific area.

    I dunno, here in the Rockies that doesn’t sound that weird. High altitude, low humidity. We’ll get at least one or two 100+ heat waves in the summer (106 is the hottest I’ve seen here), and in the winter it can drop below zero at night. Granted, the last couple decades has made the former more common and the latter less, so I don’t know if we’ll see sub 0 this year. It used to be pretty common though

  North Carolina spends its summers in the high 90’s and its winters in the high 20’s. We nearly never hit 0°F.

  It works pretty well for Minnesota. In a normal year we’ll have a few days that fall out of each side of that range.
