Northern transplants to Atlanta love to jeer at our unfamiliarity with
living with snow more than three days a year.  But we get our revenge
along about late April, early May, when the temp starts creeping up
over 72 or 73.  You'll be sure to hear a goose-like Noo Joisey accent,
squonking, "GWODD!!  Is it always this *HWOT* down here?!"

No.  If you can breathe, it isn't hot.
