Part of the fun of unseasonably awesome weather in the dead of winter when the majority of the country gets excited if a day is supposed to see a high in the 40s is talking about it! Make sure you mention how nice and warm it is here to all your friends and family who live yonder. Social media is key for this, especially with the advent of the mobile upload and apps like Instagram. Tweet it, Facebook update yourself, whatever your preferred method of public commentary is, use it. My sister just flew back for her spring semester to Ann Arbor, Michigan where the current temperature is
literally 18° and will snow once it's warm enough (seriously, are you even aware that it can be
too cold to snow?). So yeah, I'm definitely going to FaceTime her later from my patio, and please believe I'll be wearing a tank top.
