I want to move now :(

That's crazy talk. Ridiculous summer heat is condusive to pool parties, bbq and ice-cold Coronas. Plus, you could take your new truck to Flagstaff and go camping. ;)

Hey, the reality is that unless you live in the San Diego area, there are always times of the year where weather is an issue...
For me, I will gladly take the 3 months of ridiculous daytime heat where you can still party outside at night, versus the ridiculous amounts of cloudy/rainy/cold/snowy/hot/humid/mosquito-infested weather in just about every other part of the country...

Flagstaff is a nice place to live year round...snows, but not much, and is beautiful in the summers.
 

Gee!

Looks like Arizona is going to get some rain the next couple of days. This evening's weather said Friday we can get some heavy rain in southern AZ.

i like the rain as much as the next guy - but i have today off from work

the last time I took a day off "just because" i made plans to do stuff around the city with my wife - most of it outdoors - rained all day

today I have to do some work around the house in the morning, get a haircut then I have a 2pm tee time with another couple friend of ours - if that rains out i'm going to be pissed

not to mention my whole family is coming into town tonight and we have plans to do things tommorrow - they were out here for christmas and had to deal with that cold stretch

if it's them who is brining the weather i'm sending them back to NY

Terrorist cells in South Phoenix? When I lived at 15th Avenue and Camelback, I think I lived next to a terrorist cell.
