But how long does that last? Enough to go for a wardrobe change halfway through the day...?
I wish! Here in Tennessee, we've had 6 or more inches that stayed on the ground for weeks, with temps that stayed in the single digits (Farenheit) for a week or more. That's infrequent, but not rare. Our winters always dip into the teens, twenties, thirties for days and nights on end. Two years ago I had 8 inches of snow in my yard, and it stayed for about a week. The southern US is not in the tropics, some of it is subtropical (barely), but temperate. [Tennessee - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessee#Climate)
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

I am in New Zealand. It is currently 9 degrees C. The shortest day is almost upon us. And youtube decides to show me an add "Sky is out, Thighs are out. Get the most comfortable shorts...." These guys are hiring hoards of marketing people to front a huge team of engineers, data scientists, analysts powered by untold compute capacity at the problem, fed with all the data they can source. Yet they cannot tell the southern hemisphere from the northern hemisphere. Maybe that is a new variable they need to add to their models (once they license the patent I'm about to apply for)
Well Cairns is in the southern hemisphere and I sit here in shorts and Tshirt. So you need to ad how far from the equator you are to the algorithm. Mind you last week was trakkie daks and ugh boots.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity - RAH I'm old. I know stuff - JSOP

They're worse than stupid, because they can't even train their AI to do such a simple thing right.
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
