British Couple Reacts to Top 10 Coldest States in America 

What James and Millie don't appear to realize is that distance from the moderating effects of an ocean makes a huge difference. Minnesota, att 1300 miles from any ocean, is far colder in the winter, and considerably warmer in the summer than somewhere like Seattle Washington, which is a similar latitude. In the British Isles they are never more than about 100 miles, if that, from an ocean.

Jackson Hole, WY (south of Yellowstone) elevation is 6000+ feet. It's cold in the winter, in summer when the sun is out it can feel warm but it gets "chilli" quickly when the sun sets.

Eastern Nebraska had -30C windchills yesterday, a couple days after having temps reach 15C

I was stationed in Alaska for 5 years. Whenever it got cold in Washington where my family lived I would say. Don't come to Alaska, let Alaska come to you!

I've lived most of my life in Michigan and Minnesota and spring, summer and fall is great and beautiful weather

Yellowstone is at a high altitude so it can be cool at night in the summer. During the winter it’s so cold you can get frostbite. Don’t go there in the winter. 😀

I live in Wisconsin, yep it gets cold here but I don't mind it. I also lived in North Dakota for a while, the winters there sucked. It sucked only because it was open and flat and you got 3 feet of snow and schools still wouldn't be called off.

I still remember the yr that Chicago dropped to almost -30° F (-34° C) w a windchill of -80° F (-62° C). Coldest temp I EVER experienced. I remember my eyeballs instantly feeling like someone had pried the lids open and shoved crushed ice in there. Your lashes would freeze together and seal your eyes shut in less than a minute. It was like a crazy severe ice cream headache thru your entire head and face…and hands and feet, even tho I was bundled up in about 5 layers. it really really hurt! It was so cold you couldn’t catch your breath.

I'm am born in raised in New Jersey in the United States and have been to all 50 states except for Hawaii! When you plan to travel to America it definitely matters what time of year you go. I have been to Alaska in June and it got up into the 90's degrees Fahrenheit in the sun and then it'll dip into the 40's degrees Fahrenheit at night. In Alaska when I went there was no snow on the ground, got to take a boat ride of the coast of Seward, Alaska and saw sea lions, whales, and icebergs! Also, went to Denali National Park in Alaska and saw grizzly bears, moose, and deer along with Mt. McKinley. I have been to Wyoming also, again during the summer. Went to Grand Canyon, saw "Old faithful"- name for a geyser ( the water volcano thing you mentioned) named old faithful because it erupts every so many minutes on schedule. When you are planning to take a trip make sure you check to see when the national parks are open,they are not open all year round and months might be less busy than others. I highly recommend taking a trip, don't let all the cold weather talk scare you, it gets warmer in the summers. It's a must see! Thanks for sharing! ; ) 💕 💞

Montana is cold sometimes bone chilling cold but it's definitely worth a visit. If you're visiting Yellowstone National park you will already be in Montana on the North and West sides of the park. Winters can be brutal here, just had -21 F that's -29 C. If you come here in the winter bring a big coat and a camera.

Ogunquit Maine is a beautiful fishing village I recommend visiting

In Utah were I live the temperature is effected as much by elevation as by other factors. Sad but true story. A couple of years ago we had a couple visit us, he from the U.K. and she from New York. They came in the late spring/early summer , rented a Jeep and ventured out into our red rock desert. As the weather was warm they wore only shorts and flip flops. A day or so later the Jeep had a problem(they had not given anyone an itinerary),and being ill prepared perished in a snow storm.

You don’t know cold until you step outside and your snot freezes when you breathe through your nose lol

I grew up in Maryland, but have lived in Florida for over 30 years. I can't handle the cold anymore. It never bothered me, but after living here about 5 years, I stopped going home in the winter.

Alaska’s high temperature is around 65F in the summer.

Yellowstone is not worth going to in person. It's way out there you have to drive very far from any of the nearest airport cities. Also I person it's not as good as in pictures. You get there and the ground level crow is not that great it's just steaming pools. Old faithful is pretty cool but not worth the time it takes to get there. If you are going to go the Grand Tetons and Jackson hole will make the trip more worth it as they are both really cool.

Wyoming is usually in the 80-90s in the summer. It gets up to 100 rarely and I've personally lived through snow in every month of the year but being really cold and snowing in the summer is rare. That can probably give you an idea of how cold it is in the winter. For instance this week 0F is the warmest it's gotten to and it's gotten down to -20F during the day

Greetings from Minnesota an incredibly bipolar state as far as weather goes . Yes it is cold as hell here during the winter however come around July or August and your looking at Temps in the 80s and 90s Fahrenheit .

I think the only one cold year round would be Alaska.

Idaho is flat gorgeous, and mostly overlooked

Summer is the only time to go....

I’m from Idaho, and DEFINITELY don’t say you’re from California here (though this is true of many states in the west) 😂 But if you are coming here in the summer, I’d be happy to give you some great spots!!

Minot, ND freezing is the rezin

I'm from Alaska and I think anyone that has been to Alaska will agree with me that you'll definitely be missing out if you don't go. If you're prepared for the weather, it's not uncomfortable. Trust me. We're all human. You'll survive.

Fairbanks Alaska I have seen temperature the range from -70 F winter to 100 degrees f in the summer.

In Northern Alaska you get months without the sun and months without darkness

The best part about a Minnesota winter.... no mosquitoes (or any other bugs) for at least 5 months.

Wyoming is an incredible state to visit! I would definitely recommend it. The summer is pretty hot and dry but in the areas tourists tend to visit it is not so hot. Wyoming is basically a high altitude desert and there are also a lot of mountains. I guess what you have to understand about the US climate is that the interior has a lot of temperature variation in the cold states, even Alaska it is pretty decent in the summer, probably about the same temperature as the UK. The northern U.S just get's really cold in winter because most ocean warmth is blocked off by the rocky mountains.

If anyone is considering moving to any of the Northern States, having grown up in Northern Ohio on Lake Erie, the best advice I can offer is to move there at the beginning of Spring. That way you get to see some of the cold and the rest of the seasons before winter rolls around.

So knowing how seasons work in the US is key to planning your trip. In these northern/"cold" states, they all still have summer. Basically, June, July and August are going to be the warmest weather for each of these states. And even places like Minnesota, Wisconsin, the Dakotas (Wyoming for your purposes) and yes even Alaska, are pretty nice during their summer months. For example, Wyoming averages right around 75-85 degrees Fahrenheit during the day for those 3 months I listed above. Mid-50's to low 60's at night. So you'd actually be quite *warm* most of the time if you were wearing anything more than a T-shirt during the day. Maybe a light jacket or sweatshirt at night. The only difference between these states and a lot of the remaining states that are "less cold" is that these states usually have cold weather that starts way earlier and lasts longer than most other places. It's nothing to see 8, 10, 12 inches of snow in some of these states in September, meanwhile most of the rest of the country is just barely into "autumn". And it's also not uncommon that these states are still getting big snowfalls in April or May while everywhere else is in the middle of spring. www.weather-us.com/en/wyoming-usa-climate Also, Ohio can be cold, but it's not the cold or heat it's known for. It's the variety. There are weeks, and even days, where you can experience all 4 seasons in the span of about 12-18 hours 🤣🤣

I want to Yellowstone in July and it snowed everyday! Please take a jacket and a heavier type of coat. Yellowstone is still worth a visit.

Here in the Pacific Northwest, we refer to 22C (~72F) as "Goldilocks weather"... not too hot and not too cold. Another factor that has to be accounted for besides northerly latitudes, is elevation. Elevation has to be taken into consideration as a factor in temperature and weather in much of the US.

Living in Duluth, MN for 64 years I can assure you a person must love the winter months and the cold. I've seen 4 feet of snow dumped, in two days, as early as Halloween and snow piles as late as the beginning of July. The temperatures routinely reach 86F (30C) in the summer and -40F (-40C) in the winter. Yes, if you dress for the cold winter is great there's lots to do. Minnesota is known as the Land of 10,000 Lakes and when those lakes freeze they become a barren wasteland that allows the wind to produce -80F wind chill that make it seem like your eyeballs are freezing even with your back to the wind. I almost forgot the winter can get real long and the sun seems to set right after it rises, at least where I live.

Alaska in the summer can be quite enjoyable. The near 24/7 night of the winter has been replaced by near 24/7 daylight of the summer. Temperatures down where the bigger cities are stay mild in the summer, rarely uncomfortably hot or cold, nearly perfect I would say. The midnight sun has an interesting effect on the body where, during a short visit at least, you seemingly never get tired and only your watch will tell you when to sleep making it an almost jetlag free place to visit and so long as blackout curtains are available sleep iis not an issue either. The sights that can be seen are some of the most amazing examples of untouched wilderness anywhere and unique bits of gold rush mining history are still preserved as well. The cities are a sight to behold as well as winter necessity has tightly packed them together in a style that I have not seen anywhere else in my, admittedly limited, travels or on video. While I would not want to be caught in the state when the snow flies (had a brush with "termination dust" once and that was close enough thank you very much) during the summer months you are doing yourself a disservice if you are eliminating Alaska from your list of states to visit just because it gets so cold in the winter that the average is also cold, take a look at the summer temps, or consider a cruise to Alaska where you can be out amongst the whales and see the glaciers. My parents have done many cruises all around the world in their retirement and one they keep going back to is Alaska for the sheer grandeur of nature on display. Note: I am not from Alaska, this is just the opinion of someone from Seattle who has visited the state on several occasions.

Canada here, love your video. I live in the coldest city ( on average ) in all of Canada! It’s Winnipeg, Manitoba. Our winter average is -30C, but we can easily drop into the minus 40’s even without windchill. However our summers range in the high twenties, thirties and our highest temperature recorded was 42.2! So we get a nice variety lol.

He speaks the truth about Wisconsin. I've lived here 6 years. I lived mostly in the deep south before that. It's not the cold that bothers me. It's the months of gray skies and the snow. Virginia is beautiful with lots of history. West Virginia has some stunning places to see as well. Come in the fall for some beautiful colors and lots of fall festivities! Skyline Drive is gorgeous in the fall.

You should google "average temperatures for whichever state(s) by month". Many states are warming up by May. Michigan has rental cottages on many lakes that are pretty nice, as well as the massive Sleeping Bear dunes along Lake Michigan. I've heard South Carolina can be a pretty good alternative to Florida and may be cheaper as well. The southern states are going to be pretty hot in the summer. The sun absolutely bakes you from right overhead in Florida. Also, there's alligators there, so yeah, be careful. They pop up in town as well.

Steve is absolutely correct. I am from Minnesota and temperature extremes are much more drastic with temperatures ranging from -45 F in the winter to 95 F in the summer. And? What's an ocean? From our state it's a 2 - 3 day continual drive. James and Millie do not appear to understand what real cold weather is (on a daily basis for up to five months). They do now understand our long drives I believe. I cannot imagine only driving 100 miles and to them it's a long trip. My daily 'back-and-forth' work commute (through Minneapolis traffic) is 115 miles. Keep up the great work, James and Millie! Enjoy watching your videos.

I'm from the Northern US, and I can handle the cold. When you grow up in it, you adapt and it becomes part of your daily fall/winter life. HOWEVER, do NOT count out an Alaskan cruise for a vacation simply because it is cold. Seasonal times, and of course heated rooms and pools on a cruise ship still make for an amazing vacation. Nature is still plentiful from the deck with whales, bears, birds etc as well as docking to native villiages to learn about the traditions and history of native Alaskans. Yall would love it.

I was born in Montana and I remember my dad having to dig 4’ of snow away from our door so we could get out. He also had to shovel snow off our roof and deck so they wouldn’t collapse from the weight.

Last July, my wife and I drove from Minnesota to Yellowstone in 2 days, then went south to the Grand Tetons. It was great because of COVID-19 kept the crowd very thin, one of the few silver linings! The temperature was very enjoyable, but there were a couple of places that were cold enough to warrant a light jacket, so you should be prepared when you go there! That said it is truly breathtaking the geysers in Yellowstone and the majestic Tetons!

Kind of surprised at Alaska's average. I remember living there when I was about 5 years old, and I do remember the summers being fairly warm - perhaps in the 60s or 70s fahrenheit. But the winters were brutal. I remember someone telling me that if you died in the winter there, they literally had to put you on ice until summer, simply no way to bury you.

Maine is a beautiful place. I'd highly recommend it. That lighthouse was Portland Head. I'd say most of those places are comfortably warm in the summer.

I had a mind melting experience the other day when I was converting some temps. I was telling friends in Mexico about weather my buddy was having in North Dakota. I converted -50f to c. Imagine my shock when I saw it was -45.5c! I investigated it with a scientist co-worker and we discovered that, the colder it gets, the gap between the numbers shrinks. Then at -40, it's the same. That's right! If you were in -40 temps and had two thermometers side by side, one set to c and one to f, they would be same. Then, the colder it gets after that, the gap between the numbers begins to grow again but this time, f is lower. Don't get me wrong, I totally understand that the temperature *feels* the same regardless of the temperature *number* assigned to it. I'm just saying that the discovery of the math side of it squoze out all the juice in my mind grapes.

I'm from the USA South, but I have visited nearly all of these States and I think that they are wonderful. I especially loved New Hampshire and northern Minnesota.

In South Dakota we can go from -33 C in the winter to 37 C in the summer (-27f to 100f)

I live in Anchorage AK, and the summer here is amazing. Temperature can get up to high 80’s at times, lows down in the 50’s, 60’s. Very dry, so very easy to stay completely comfortable. You absolutely should visit, but you may never want to leave. I visited, and then promptly move here.

Remember, these temps aren't throughout the year; it's what you get when you add all the months together & find the average. So Wyoming for example gets plenty warm in summer and plenty cold in winter.

The cold in Wyoming is what we call a 'dry' cold, which means the humidity is lower. You will love Yellowstone National Park. Those are elk, not reindeer. Another thing you should know about the western United States. States like Wyoming and Colorado are at a higher altitude that I'm sure you are used to. A good rule to follow....walk slower, breather deeper and drink about half as much alcohol as you normally do and you'll be fine.

All of these cold places in the video are almost always warm and some of can be hot and humid. I used to work in Yellowstone and it is really nice in the summer. The park mostly closes from October to May due to the snow and impassible roads. There is one place in the park that is open in winter and it is the Snow Lodge in the Old Faithful area. You have to take a "Snow Coach" (basically a large snow mobile with seating for a few people) to get there and you would have to have reservations way in advance. Most of Yellowstone books up a year in advance so whenever you are thinking of going, starting going on their website a year in advance for reservations.

Don't judge by averages. I've lived in Wisconsin all of my life, and our winters are very cold, but our summers can be very hot. 70-90 Fahrenheit is not unusual from mid June to the end of August. The yearly average you are being given doesn't really represent reality.

Amazingly, some of the coldest areas in winter get quite warm in the summer. It would be interesting to see the average temps in January and July instead of a year round average.

I would suggest visiting Alaska in the summertime. It’s supposed to be beautiful the only drawback is in the summertime the sun does not go down. The sun is up all day just like in the winter when the sun is down all day. I have not been but I would love to experience it one day. It’s one of those things that you do for the stories and memories

I live in Minnesota and while winters here do get pretty intense (-20° celsius today and that's not even as cold as it can get), it also gets super hot and crazy humid here during summer. It's common for winter to last well into April, though. Early spring is when we get a lot of ice storms

Hey Beesley and Millie, hope you guys are doing well. I love the new logo and the new background! I can't get live in any of these state! The San Francisco Bay Area is usually 60 -80 degrees Fahrenheit all year long whether it's spring, summer, fall, or winter! We don't really have seasons here, it's just all one season!

Yes! Small towns. One of my favorite things to do is take road trips and explore small towns. If you want to really see what a local culture is like, skip the cities and visit the small towns. Vastly different across the US.

When I was a kid (1970s) I lived just North of Anchorage, and really, the weather wasn't much different than Washington, where I live now. The ocean is quite warm, and keeps the climate quite warm. Fairbanks, has huge differences in temperature from summer to winter. Since its 350 miles from the ocean, it gets hot in summer, and cold in the winter. If you visit Alaska in the summer, you have the midnight sun. Anchorage gets dark around midnight and starts getting light again around 3am or so. And you HAVE to see the vegetables grown in the Matanuska Valley.

Cars all over town here have been covered in ice with ice hanging off of them. Literally coated in ice like paint. I'm near the Illinois/Wisconsin border. The thing about living in cold states is it isn't always like that. We've had days in the 50's F (10 C) but we just had freezing rain. When you've been in -10F (-12C) then 50° feels like summer.

We in Wisconsin have a saying..."If you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes, it will change." We go from 110 to - 40 degrees Fahrenheit.

I grew up in Minnesota and now live in Maine. The one thing that keeps me in the North is we have 4 very distinct seasons to enjoy. Appreciation of it being Summer, nice warm days, but anticipation of cooler pleasant temps of Autumn. From November on, not unusual to snow and can carry on sometimes into early May.

Most states don't want Californians to move there. Sorry but at 10:22 those are Elk not reindeer/caribou. We have tons of small sea side cities/villages you can visit in Alaska also have rain forests in the same area. In the summer it is in the 60's f (15.5c) as an average but get up in the high 80's as well. With 18+ hours of light a day in the summer it feels hotter then it is because of the angle of the sun for longer periods.

Heyo! New Hampshire guy here :) I feel like this video didn't do this amazing state any justice. Although he is right, and we have some unlucky hikers/tourists go missing during hiking in the winter, you will be hard-pressed to find the type of views here anywhere else. People drive from across the country to come here and see our forests change color during the fall. Once the winter season hits, you have amazing skiing/hiking throughout the white mountains and surrounding lakes areas. We have also been known to be some of the friendliest people in the country. So if you ever find yourself visiting the northeast, traveling through the quaint small towns, parks, lakes, and mountains will really do it for you.... just make sure you pack a jacket and a winter hat :)

In Phoenix, Arizona we have a lot of "snowbirds" that come from the Northeast, Midwest, Plains and Canada for the winter. Mostly retirees but some professionals as well. Yet Northern Arizona has its own skiing resorts.

In my part of Texas, we have experienced several ups and downs in the temperature and weather this year. Recently, it was 82/27+ and then two days later it was below freezing. Two days ago it was 75/24 and today we had ice. I'm a warm-weather person. I grew up barefoot, T-shirts, and shorts.

1973, Northern New Hampshire, I was due to process into the military. With wind chill, it was below minus 40 degrees Farenheit. Went to move the car and the left front wheel fell off. The lug nuts had shattered! Of course, that was an extreme event, but minus temps were always common.

Fun Fact: -40 degrees Fahrenheit and -40 degrees Celsius are EXACTLY THE SAME. It's the one temperature where the two different scales just happen to line up. Of course, that's a small comfort when it's that freaking cold outside.

There's an old quote that's been misattributed to Mark Twain: "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." He probably didn't say this, but we all know what it means. In the summer, the chilly fog and wind blowing off the ocean catches the tourists by surprise. So if you come here on your trip, be prepared!

If you go in September or October, the temperatures will between 10-16 degrees Celsius. Also, it’s the perfect time to go to a football game. I suggest going to the biggest rivalry in college. Texas vs OU which is in Dallas. It takes place during the Texas State fair which is a fun Texas experience with unbelievable food!!

I remember taking a transfer to Fargo, North Dakota in February years ago. The day I drove my belongings up, it was -35F with winds gusting up to 70mph. The wind chill was about -75F. You could feel the Uhaul being pushed around the road. Definitely was an experience I didn't need.

No state in the lower 48 is cold in the summer, unless you get unlucky. OTOH, there are parts of states that basically never see winter snow -- coastal California, Florida....

Actually, Alaska has more daylight hours per year than any state in the Union, including Hawaii and Florida. My June sunlight day is over 20 hrs long. Alaska in the summer is the most heavenly place on earth. So glad this guy is helping to keep our population low. My winter in Anchorage is longer but North Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan, Montana, Wisconsin, all have colder winters than South Central Alaska. Our temps are moderated by the Ocean. It is cooler than some places but can often be 80F- 90F during warm spells. Not as warm as Fairbanks in the summer averaging 70F and I have seen 100F in July there.

I'm from southeast Idaho, and yes, the Tetons in Wyoming are gorgeous in the winter, actually any time of the year. Grand Targhee ski resort is some of the best downhill skiing you'll find anywhere, and you can take snowmobile tours of Yellowstone NP in the winter. We do get really cold, especially with wind chill, but this area is more desert than not, so layering works well.

As much as America is quite large, some of the smallest stats are in the north-east, so you could visit a lot of New England in a week and a half to two weeks. For example you could fly into Boston and take a Historical tour there, then head up the coast to see some of the old light-houses in Maine and try some pretty great fried seafood and lobster rolls. After that you could go hiking in New Hampshire; I recommend Mount Major to inexperienced hikers, because it's an easy short hike with a great view at the top, and if you go during the right weeks in August there are tons of wild blueberries on that mountain. After that you would still have time to visit Vermont, and try out some locally produced high quality cheeses, baked goods, and unusual maple flavored things. August would be best for wild blueberries, and orchards like Apple Crest in New Hampshire may be open, but the best time for apple picking and the height of Autumn foliage would be later in the fall ; you can look it up online, but my memory/guess would be late September into October sometime, but obviously, by then the wild blueberries will be gone. As you mentioned, the winter isn't that bad if you're just visiting for a week or two, and I would recommend New Hampshire and Maine for affordable skiing/snowboarding trips. King Pine in New Hampshire is especially affordable and beginner friendly, for more experienced skiers/snowboarders, people debate between Sunday River, Waterville Valley, and Loon Mountain.

❤I love this video at large but starting the YEAR with a GREAT INVESTMENT should be the wisest thing every individual should do. I will advice everybody who is into crypto to stick with ETH and BTC as much as you can guys.If everyone sells when it starts to fall, which at one point it will, the dream maybe lost because of it being too volatile for companies to get behind..

I was raised in Alberta Canada. I've seen 100 degrees in Summer and, with wind chill, minus 40 degrees in winter. I worked, sometimes, in the oil fields in those conditions. I lived in Idaho with 3' of snow and minus 20.

It's currently 30°(-1° C) where I live(between San Antonio and New Braunfels). I'm not a big fan of cold weather, so I look forward to spring, with it's warmer weather. You definitely need to research the average seasonal temperatures of the areas you are interested in visiting in the U.S. Love your reactions and interactions between both of you. ✝

Michigan from March to September is beauiful and warm. Summertime in the United State is short & t-shirt weather, all hotels have AC. But if you rent a car you'll need AC. Yellowstone you'll need to book a tour or rent a car t Airport book car early as possible .

Speaking of Alaska, they recently broke their coldest temp of minus 73 F with a minus 90 F. I visited Yellowstone park a few years back (the 1970s). They closed the park on June 22 because of a blizzard. I was camping in a tent in the mountains of Wyoming in August and woke one morning to a fresh 6 inches of snow.

Summertime at Yellowstone will be in the low 20's C for highs, and from 5 to 10 C at night. Subtract 5 to 10 C in the Spring and Fall. You're not going in the winter, so don't worry about temps then.

Many parts of the world drink hot drinks in hot weather and cold drinks in cold weather. Vermont and Wisconsin both have cold winters, and both eat Ice cream year-round, but they both also have large numbers of dairies... feel free to draw your own conclusions.

I would definitely visit Yellowstone in the summer. The hot springs are only rainbow-colored in the summer. In the winter they are just a pretty blue

Check out somersinalaska. That's the name of it. They give a good look at Alaska year round. They live near Fairbanks in a town called North Pole

I live in Minnesota. It's not that cold. It's always 70 degrees in my house. 😉

I grew up in Maine and it’s a wonderful state. So many working fishing towns and villages along the coast but then lots of wilderness with rivers, ponds and lakes. Best in autumn and summer. Alaska is beautiful too. Just visit in summer. Yellowstone gets so many visitors so be aware of many people. Glacier National park in Montana and Canada is the best in my book.

You apparently do not understand the great variation in temps in these states. Most get much warmer than where you are. And, he made a mistake in the latitude being responsible. Britain is parallel with Northern America /Canada. It's the fact that the American mountain ranges run north-south, unlike the rest of the world. That's why Washington and Oregon weren't mentioned. They're west of the ranges that force arctic air from Canada to the south. It's better when you know what you're talking about.

I was in Yellowstone in late September and I would say I thought is was nice. Mornings were cool (even a bit of snow on a couple of days), but by noon I was comfortable in shirt sleeves. I would recommend staying in West Yellowstone just outside the West Gate to the park.

I don’t think you guys understand how cold these places actually are in the winter. You would not be able to bear them being from England. You would be miserable.

Lol I’m from Idaho and I laughed my head off when he kept saying Idaho wants Californians moving here, that is sarcasm gold 😂

In July in Yellowstone, it ranges from 60-80 F or 15-25 C.

Your parents should go to Bar Harbor in Maine. There are plenty of hotels and bed-and-breakfasts for them to stay at. Restaurants and the whole small fishing town vibe. They can eat fresh Lobster on the pier and visit small crafts shops. I used to go there every summer with my husband when we visited his family.

I've lived all over the place growing up. Germany, California, Texas, Missouri, Minnesota and feel the best and most at home in Minnesota. It took a bit to adjust to cold and how things still keep moving no matter the temp or amount of snow out there. I would rather add a layer of clothes and deal with cold more then being in heat. There is only so much you can take off before you get arrested lol. We do get all seasons here which I love and am kinda ready for with it being -6 F here right now. It is pretty and sparkly with all the snow though.

I live in Pennsylvania and the northwestern part of the state gets some brutal winters due to the lake effect snow from Lake Erie. It’s considered to be in the snow belt for a good reason! My daughter went to Penn State Behrend University and due to the frigid cold wind and snow, they had to put up ropes between the buildings so the students could get to class.

From Southern NH here - we expect a foot or so of snow by tomorrow morning Friday. Moving further north next year :)

The best ice cream is from one of the hottest states.... Blue Bell Ice Cream. Ben and Jerry's is trash.

I like having all four seasons in Many states they don't have that if it was Winter all year round I would understand but in the summer Michigan definitely gets very warm just like other places honestly it might be a little better because it's not as hot but definitely feels good

We have seasons in Alaska.....and it's HUGE.

What the narrator of the video being watched fails to realize is we have the great lakes in Michigan and are separated into 2 parts. The Upper Penninsula (bordering Wisconsin and Canada) is much colder than the lower Penninsula (Detroit etc). Our winter average is -2 to -6 degrees Celsius or 20-26 farenheit with lows to -20F in Jan/Feb. We also average roughly 170" of snowfall each winter in my area. Our first hard frosts begin in late September and goes until late May. Over 6 months of winter.

The hottest time of the year in the states is August. All the states get warm and most are unbearable hot. I live in Michigan and summer is well on its way in June and a nice comfortable temp in April or may. But mid summer is really common to be in the 90s

I live in Michigan and winters can be either brutal or decent the summers are amazing although it only last a little over just under 4 months totally different state each season

Even in Illinois currently where I am at, I go into the walk-in refrigerator at work to get warm !
