I know Canada does (I have Brit emigree friends there) but I did not know that the more southern states also experienced this.

We are indeed talking fahrenheit. It would probably be better if we went to celsius, but that probably will never happen. Here in Kansas we have huge variations lots of times. I always thought it was just Kansas, but it looks like many states have the same thing happen to them. It is just the way the weather goes. From what I understand, it is mainly the coast areas that don't get the large variations but as I have only ever lived in Kansas I do not know for sure if that is really the case.
We get really hot in the summer and cold in the winter. We have regular highs in the nineties and hundreds in the summer, but because of the humidity it feels even hotter. The winter usually gets in the teens with wind chills below zero. We have about one month of good weather twice a year in the spring and summer. lol
