It's all relative ...

The standard keeps changing. When the typical pollution index for a given day is above what's considered 'safe', then that pollution index becomes the standard and anything above that becomes unsafe. Same with average temperature.

Where I am, winter has taken on a whole new perspective. When I was a kid, you could count on enough snow to make it worthwhile to buy a sled for funtime activities. Now, we're "lucky" if we get any accumulations over an inch. And in January, you could bet you'd be freezing your gonads off if you spent any considerable amount of time outside on any given day. Now, we get maybe a cold snap below freezing that lasts for a few days, then it's back to rollercoaster temperature changes.

The weather is all screwed up.
