Google is your friend !

On average, above freezing year-round but it does dip below zero on occasion.

I just looked it up: Avg. winter temperature = 40.2F
Avg. frost free days = 348

Pssh, asking in a post is the same as googling.

40.2 .. "F" ? Do I have to worry about accidentally buying leaded gasoline if I ever come pay a visit?

The outdoor sump was the best idea I ever came up with. No mess; no noise; doesn't take up space. I only wish I could have put the sump for the 225g out there too. It's in a closet. :mrgreen:

Don't pay any attention to Lance he's getting old.....plus his chaeto-balls are square :wink:


The rest of us around here think in Celsius

Yeah Marie, I hate metric. I always have to convert it in my head first. :redface:
OK smartie pants: I bet you don't know how many kilos you weigh, or what your bra size is in centimeters. :mrgreen:

My chaeto-balls/block was 69 x 30 x 30 centimeters. :mrgreen:

Tony, you would love it here. You could sail your ass off. Protected calm ocean and hundreds of lakes all within easy driving distance.

Metric just makes more sense to me. Inches and cm I can more or less interchange. Although I'm not telling you what my bra size is in cup OR cm! :p

Lbs and kg, again no problem, miles and km, no worries, mostly on account that these are linearly proportional (ie., multiply one number by another number)

C and F though is just messed messed messed up. 9/5 of one and then add or subtract a 32 or.. forget that. It's just different enough that my little brain shuts off. :redface:

At least with Metric the definition points were things that you could of identify with (boiling point of water, freezing point of water, etc.) and not just what some king a few hundred years ago decreed as hot or cold or whatever length his foot was. :)

Anyhow just razzing, sorry man. :p

PS. I have no doubt I would love living there!

lol, I grew up with an old British weigh scale, for years I could tell you how many stone I weighed but had no clue how many pounds or kilo's.

As for bra size? Do they measure bras in metric? ....anyway, size xtra small could be metric :lol:

Not to mention the year round mountain biking
