Welcome to the new and improved OnMilwaukee.com Sunday Sound-off, now featuring a question, two different perspectives -- then opening up the topic to our readers' responses. Please use the Talkback feature below to contribute your thoughts on the issue.

After experiencing our traditional April snow showers, many Milwaukeeans ask themselves why they put up with Brew City's weather. Are you one of them? Do you dream of moving to a warmer climate, where ice and snow are images on television, and Christmas dinners are served on patios? Or, is Milwaukee's weather OK with you?

I don't mind Milwaukee weather.
I like living in a city with four seasons, and could never live somewhere with basically the same climate all year 'round. Winter gets to be a drag, but it makes us appreciate the summers that much more. Plus, weather is just weather and it's not enough of a reason to move somewhere else. Milwaukee has a lot to offer so it's worth enduring the winter months.

I would love to live somewhere warm. Winters in Milwaukee suck, and I would love to live somewhere warmer, but a job and/or family keep me here. Someday I would love to live in Florida, Arizona or basically anywhere that doesn't have to deal with below-zero temperatures and feet of snow every year.
