Global warming baby.  Wow have to pick your own.  I've been to one of those long time ago apple orchard.  Most Americans too lazy to pick their own fruit.  We do have local farmers on side of highways selling corn, watermelon, etc here but already picked.  There are farms where you could go pick your own watermelon or apples but think that is time of past in USA.

I wouldn't mind living in British Columbia area but I'd need a few winters to adjust.  I lost all my cold tolerance since moving from Ohio to Texas 20 years ago.

Winters are getting less cold here, but yeah days of -20c (-4F) still happen in Januari and Februari, then up to 38c (100F) some days in July/August.
It could be worse, Eureka in Nunavut averages -20c for the year. Lowest recorded temperature in Canada was -63c (-81F) in the Yukon.
Record high is 45c (113F), still a bit short of Death Valley's 57c (134F) record ouch.

I prefer the heat over the bitter cold. Although dry cold is better than damp just above freezing weather. -10c with the sun out is actually not bad at all.
