What, like our California problem? What about our Florida problem? Will that get washed away as well?

Jayhawk, I feel your pain. Up here, alongside the mighty Missouri, Parkville is pretty darn cold as well, with foot-deep snow.

We see the posts of "oh well it's -20 here", yes it is but those type of temps come around every year. From all of my years in UK I very rarely saw significant amounts of snow or temps in negative figures, since moving to the US I see these things every winter and expect them.
