Right now we are having unusually high 50F and 60F weather, but a couple of weeks ago it got down to 12F. Oklahoma always has unusual weather, but its been much worse the last couple of years. I am not a fan of the cold at all.

Hmm what's up with the UK? You guys usually have quite mild weather.

We have barely had any night frost in southern Sweden yet which is quite odd, but why complain? About 6C today, but really crappy weather. The bananas are chillin in the basement though.

Jealous! What are your usual temperature swings for the seasons?

Florence, central Italy
Not a single night of frost yet. Maximum temperatures around 17C, minimum around 5C. It's hotter that usual right now.

Not so nice for bananas potted in august.

About -10 I guess...The worst is the wind combined with humidity. I can't wait for summer!
