Hey that's pretty warm! I guess there's no ice skating right now

No skating now even here in the great white North.  It was warmer in the lake (Lake Huron) yesterday than any other time I was there.  Usually it is cool enough that it is kind of hard to get in but nice once your in.

Sorry Bert, but even a born and raised Minnesotan doesn't buy 30 F this year!  It's been great weather this summer, and considering we deal with -30 in the winters, we deserve it!

Casey, unless you live in the southern most part of Minnesota, you are likely more North than where I am.  The great lakes give us some snow but they also temper the Ontario winters a bit.  Does Lake Superior have a tempering effect on your weather or does Minnesota must pretty well have a land climate?

I do actually live in the southern part of MN...about 45 min. from Iowa, 45 min. from Wisconsin.  Yes, Lake Superior does change the climate in Duluth, but thats 4 hours north of me.
