Is it just me, or have we been having the nicest spring weather in years. The temperatures have been very nice and the sky has been rather clean compared to past years. There has been little or no yellow dust at all.

it won't be long before you'll be able to stand outside for more than 5 minutes without sweating like a pig

True but for the past two months or so it has been fantastic.

Down here in Yeosu it's been pretty good. There's still a nice chill in the evenings but the days are perfectly warm without being too muggy.

I have to agree. This is my 4th spring here and this is by far the best. I have never seen so many blue skies in Seoul. However, last year has to have been the worst in a while, which makes this years seem so much better.

Ha ha, wait for end of June / start of July where it's going to be so hot and humid that the air is like pea soup that you can almost reach out and grab and you'll be sweating buckets from walking for 3 minutes and taking 2 coold showers a day. And then there's the 6 months of unbearable cold we just had to endure....

The almost perpetual grey skies in britain can suck too can't they? Actually it's been so long I'm not actually sure they were ever that bad....

This spring has been delightful. I've taken every opportunity to take the charcoal grill outside, and haven't touched my heating system or air-conditioner in weeks.

The cold is certainly relative (I come from one of the coldest cities in the world, so it's a cake-walk for me) but the summers kill me. I try to stay out of the country and miss as much of the sweaty, torrentially rainy summer as possible.

You really find those months unbearably cold? I don't even think I started wearing a jacket until December this year. March and April really weren't cold either. I haven't been wearing a jacket at all since mid-March.

Lol where do you hail from...?

Both my British friends and my mate from Texas who live in my area near Ilsan couldn't believe how unbearbly cold it's been and I've been walking around in a WW2 sheepskin bomber jacket and they have down jackets... lol... Painful just to walk ten minutes to our fave restaurant. Actually PAINFUL....!

Are you one of these canucks that wears a t-shirt in December and says it's a 'little cool...'

I hate cold weather. I don't find it gets too cold here for very long to be honest. January and February are usually pretty cold, but other than that, I don't find the winter too bad.
