It absolutely is! BC has essentially all climate types, from temperate rainforests to deserts to mountain ranges to broad valleys, etc. I'm very happy to have grown up here, and I'll probably live here for quite some time.

Of course, be careful where you go in the winter. The winter before last, we hit -49�C once [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img] [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img] [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img] Though that's by far the exception, not the rule.

Hehe, here in Hungary winters are usually very cold. In december and january sometime we got -25 ~ -35 Celsius at nights. The summer is hot however, in july and early august we got like 30-35 Celsius.
Weird climate isnt it? Hardcore continental.

It's better to have cold winters. Otherwise you don't have snow and you don't appreciate the summer properly.

I can't imagine growing up without snow for several months of the year. After all, winter is my favorite season.

Don't think I could live without skiing, snowboarding, sledding, etc.

If you want to know what the weather is like in most of Canada, remember this saying:

"We have four seasons here:
- Almost Winter
- Winter
- Still Winter
- Construction!"

I hate winter. What do you like in it? Its much better to go to the beach on summer and have fun.

Yeah, but if it's snowing a blizzard outside you have an excuse to stay inside and play computer games all day

I never need an excuse for that.

Today we have 25 degrees centigrade here and I'm suffering indoors as well as outdoors. No time better for a cold beer, but it makes you slow of mind and body.

I grew up in 4 seasons but I hate winter. Of course that was in the plains so snow isnt much fun with no hills.

Now Im in California. 2 seasons. Brown and Green. And they are oppossite what I thought (green is winter, brown is summer). If I ever miss snow I can drive an hour to the mountains, see snow, drive home. In the same day I can see sunshine, forests, beaches, wilderness, major cities, country towns, whatever Im in the mood for. I like California.

*Cough* 30 degrees Celsius, indoors.
24 with airconditioning on.

And that's just today, last monday satan decided to pop up and destroy Israel, only to realize its too damn hot, so he went back to hell so he can cool down a bit.

I know what you mean Gandalf. I also grew up in 4 seasons (Illinois), then moved to Arizona (nothing but heat), then settled in California (perfect). I like the fact that if I want snow, I just drive east for an hour, if I want to see the ocean, I drive west for about 2 hours. It's perfect.
