Heard this one multiple times:
"Hey where's the sunscreen, the sun is strong I need it" or "Yeah give me that tanning cream I wanna get tanned", meanwhile it's like 6 pm and UV is about 2. You won't get a tan and neither will you get burned (assuming you are not a vampire).

"BaCk iN My DaY tHe WeAThEr wAs NeVeR lIKe tHis!!11! iT AlwAYs sNoWed oN HalLOwEen!!11!" People joke about needing a snow suit under their Halloween costume like it's winter by then. Cool weather, sure, but it's not mid-winter. Only 5 years saw measurable snow since data started in 1884.
BUT it did snow on Halloween this year especially in the Milwaukee area which saw 2-3 inches. There was heavy snow in the early evening right around trick-or-treat time.

Hey, I'm of Scandinavian descent so I'm pale as fuck...I can assure you I need sunscreen at least half the year, especially with how much time I like to spend outdoors when I'm not working!

So Sydney is tropical according to this map: Lol That map deserves a thread of its own: Here are some silly anomalies: 1.Kerguelen Islands being temperate with nothing but grass, dirt, rock, snow and ice 2.Northernmost tip of the Antarctic Peninsula is temperate when it snow covered for like 9 months 3.What's the difference between subequatorial and equatorial?

I'd love to see a place that can get 100 degrees and snow the next day, I don't think it would be possible. I still don't think it's possible, but something close happened in September 2020, with 90 to snow happening in 1 day, and 100 to snow happening in 3. Denver reported 101F on the 5th, 93 on the 7th, and 32F snow on the 8th. 93F at 3:05 PM, 90F at 4:50 PM, rain/snow mix at 7:40 AM, 32F at 7:50 AM, afternoon high was only 37F
Denver airport isn't the most extreme place in the area, but it's easy to use since I know the airport name (KDEN).

Weather follows state lines. Florida is always hot. Arizona is always hot. Alaska is always cold. Cold winds from Nevada, hot UHI winds, and whatever the hell else Lommaren said. Winter in Wisconsin lasts 3/4 of the year. Florida has no seasons, it's just hot year-round. The seasons are getting later; October is the new September and so on. Anything about "90 F and 90% humidity". Heat index and wind chill being passed off as the actual temperature; it hits -50 F regularly here in winter and 110 F in summer... It was 98 F when I was in (insert location); therefore, the climate there is really hot! "It's the coldest ever!" when we have a seasonable day after a long warmer-than-normal stretch. It used to hit -30 F for weeks on end every winter when I was kid, and the snow went up to my ears! With climate change, we'll have the current climate of Phoenix in 100 years! It was 32 F on this date in 2003, and 57 F on this date in 2023. Irrefutable proof of climate change! Fellow Wisconsin natives whining about very benign and very normal temperatures. 50 F is excruciatingly cold, and 75 F is excruciatingly hot. People with zero sense of relativity (especially when combined with an exaggeration). "Oh it's 0 F in Dallas? Big deal; that happens all the time in June here in Minnesota!"

Melbourne recorded a daily high of 31.9C on Tuesday and it's been the highest temperature of the week so far, but ESPN Tennis LatAm is, as in every year, acting like the Australian Open is being played in Marble Bar. "The third match day at the Australian Open took place under temperatures up to 42ยฐ(Celsius), which caused many tennis players to feel ill. What measures do you think are necessary to take?"
"What measures would you take to combat the extreme heat? Should matches be played best of three sets?"

"Thaw" used to describe a period of warmer weather in weather, despite the mean temperature being above freezing the whole time. Not a thaw, because there's nothing to thaw out.
"Snow drought" in climates where a negligible amount of annual precipitation falls in the form of snow and get ample summer rainfall. Sorry, snow has never been and never will be necessary in these climates.
"Winter weather" used only when referring to frozen precipitation. Extreme cold is about as wintry weather and you can get but does not fall under this category by these folks.

tommyFL people that use "snow drought" it's almost a dead giveaway from this shitty expression that they're a deluded polar foamer living in the coastal northeast US, where maybe 5% of annual precipitation falls in the form of snow.

Snow drought is a real thing in the west where most water comes from snowpack in the mountains. Dumb term for people in the east to use though I agree.

And, this has probably been mentioned earlier, but any mention of "real cold fronts" to describe subjective preferences. No, a cold front is a cold front, there's no subjective temp below which it's a cold front and above which it isn't, subjective preferences don't apply to that one.

This is along the same lines as when the British media refer to a tornado as a 'mini-tornado'. It's either a tornado, a waterspout, or a funnel. No mini- about it
