Mehta tells TechCrunch that “33 percent of the year, Chicago has some form of precipitation” and that his company has learned in the San Francisco area that “people just do not like grocery shopping when it’s raining.”
I think in Chicago he's going to learn something about how much people like grocery shopping when it's 15°F outside too...
- joezydeco 13y agoI can't tell if this writer actually lived in Chicago, or just can't handle weather that isn't 72F and sunny. "It’s as cold as the last circle of Dante’s Inferno in Chicago about half the year" Um, not even close. And even when it is 15F, we don't sit and home and moan about it. Life goes on.
- selectodude 13y agoSeriously, it's as hot as the last circle for about 20 percent of the year, but when it's 10 degrees out you sack up and deal with it.
- minimax 13y agoI live in Chicago but I'm originally from the south. I feel exactly the opposite. To me, it feels a little bit warm in the summer for all of a month or two, then it's cold as hell in January and February.
