No it's about right for Michigan. March tends to be between 30-40 degrees with an occasional ice storm that knocks everything out for 2 days. The only thing I hate is that I can't keep my damn car clean, I wash it and all the melt water just gets it dirty again. Supposed to be in the mid 40's tomorrow with loads of sun so maybe I can wash and wax it.
Yeah that's kinda tough. On one side, you have to wash it to prevent it from looking like those gross cars that haven't been washed in years yet it's a pain getting the car dirty all the time even though it's sunny. You're probably good washing and waxing it this weekend. All we really need is a good rain to wash all of this nasty salt off the roads before the GTI gets here...

Ya, although car wax doesn't work all that well when it's chilly out.
When are you getting the GTI here? We need really to get that Michigan meet into motion now that the weather is finally breaking. It really should be breaking into the 50's-60's by the end of the month. I remember last year on St. Paddy's day it was like 70.
It should be here the first month of April. And then if everything goes to plan I'll be here through July-ish. I'll for sure be here through early June. But yeah, there's got to be some pretty sweet things to do in the state during the summer a bunch of us will have to go to.
Insane hailstorm just then hit Victoria hard. We just parked the car out for a wash and hail came down hard, the driveway is now about 5 cm (Yes 5cm) deep at least. An entire speed bump was covered, and the lawn was just non existent.

Yes it is. Summer in the upper Midwest is humid and 70s-80s, probably getting a few degrees higher.
The only part of the US that isn't hot (due to humidity or just temperature) is the Pacific coast. Seattle is typically 70s-80s and pretty dry (unless it's raining), which is very nice.

It's pretty awesome outside today, 55 and sunny. I had to go to the bank and it was the first time in like 5 months I had the windows down without the heat on. It's real melty out as you can imagine though so my would be clean car is no longer clean.
We're further from a huge body of water. Starting tomorrow though it's supposed to rain all week, which is good because the roads need a good washing to get rid of the 9 zillion pounds of salt they put on them.

Yeah that lake always has a bigger effect than I give it credit for. Joy of joys it looks like it's going to be in the 40s and raining for our first Frisbee tournament this weekend. Other than that I'm down for the rain. Salt is bad for the GTI.
The weather has been amazing the last few days, sun out all the time and hardly any wind. Honestly you would have a tough time telling it was March in conditions like that, it felt more like June.
