I spent 13 years in Winnipeg (just moved here 3 years ago). The winters there were cold, but short compared with here, and the heat and humidity of summer was absolutely blissful!!
It would start significantly warming up in early April many years, and would continue right to November. It would still hit +30C and higher in September, and into the mid-20s in October. I desperately miss the heat and humidity ... I find it so chilly and so dry here.
I'd move back in a flash if it weren't for my education and the lack of hills there. I do like the mountains here.
