It can and does get a mite nippy, but the ocean seems to mitigate. No
lake effect either. So I think Toronto would regularly win out. When
I lived on Lake Sunapee up in New Hampshire, we got the temps you're
describing. For the past week or so, it *has* been unseasonably cool
(grâce à notre voisin du nord, lui, je suppose, moi). I thought Yoon
Ha was a fellow Cornellian, high above Cayuga's waters, so I'd've
thought she would be accustomed to having her bippy frosted. We'll
talk on Sunday :)

There's a delightful expression in Chinese, "cheng2liang2", which
means to appreciate/enjoy the coolness of,say, a summer evening. An
expat friend of mine and I jokingly translated it directly as "ride
the cool", so,

Riding the cool, I am
