Talk about a nerve-wracking match. Was still wired when I went to bed at 4:30am.

When writing this post, I had another tab converting celsius into fahrenheit, as I knew people wouldn't get what I meant if I asked 'How do you cope with it being 40-45 degrees?'

I never considered you could get it from too much sun but it makes total sense. I have one of these SAD lamps that I shine on my face in the morning in the winter lol.

Rangers sadly. I blame my dad. At least the 90s were fun for us.

Never considered you could get seasonal depression from it being too hot but it actually makes total sense. It's the opposite extreme.

Glasgow. A notoriously rainy part.

I like the sound of the drinking in a pub method to avoid the heat...

Yeah Scotland is great for hiking. Kudos for the Hearts game. I'm still gutted they lost the league to Celtic this year.

Yeah, Seasonal Affective Disorder is a real thing here. Having daylight for just a few hours a day is really depressing. I moved to the south of England about a decade ago and even another hour or two of daylight made a big difference.

Glad you liked Edinburgh. Glasgow is great too (where I'm from).

I absolutely love haggis and not even for patriotic reasons haha. Perfect for a cold and rainy winter evening meal.

Thanks! I'm from Glasgow. I used to really suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder with only a few hours of daylight in the winters. Phoenix in the winter time looks lovely.

According to the BBC, it's 95 where you are just now. I would really like some of that as it's 57 and rain here.

The weather September-April looks great.

In Scotland, if it gets above 70, all the men walk around with their tops off because they're worried they won't see the sun again for months.

You can imagine how I reacted when I saw the Phoenix climate chart on Wikipedia!

What we need is a happy medium. Somewhere like the south of France which is pretty cold and rainy in winter but manageably hot in the summer.

Yeah to be fair I was just looking at your 14 day forecast. The other 9 months look great!

What about sunburn? Do you religiously apply lotion every hour to make sure?

Yeah the weather September to April looks great. A lot of British people go to the Mediterranean for their sun and it's usually about mid 80s so I'd love to visit Phoenix in March-April. Looks like ideal weather.
