"If you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes" or "Only in _____ do you get such rapid changes". If you're in California (I lived in LA and didn't hear that said there) or maybe a few other coastal cities, then you're the exception by being able to consistently predict weather

Yep. I've lived in six states in my adult life and they all say that. Also, "Allergies are the worst here in ______".

3 hours 15 minutes, but yeah midwestern weather is nuts.

9/22/23 11:58am

It has been a while, but we used to make the drive quite often. I remember making the drive in a couple of hours.
