True - we are spoiled in some ways.

The other night we were doing a night ride and none of us even had long pants on - shorts and a light wind-breaker were the fashion standard. One came in flip-flops. When we have Santa Ana conditions (warm, dry winds blowing in from the desert areas to the east) it can get up into the high 80's/low 90's in the so called "dead of winter."

I grew up in VA so I'm aware of what "real" weather is like, and do appreciate it more than those born here.
