<p>Thank you, mchs and Liv09.</p>
<p>lilweiglas: My D was born and grew up in Minnesota, except for high school. I lived there a total of 16 years. Carleton and Macalester weather will make Oberlin seem like California. My D is a Minnesota native but avoided applying to Carleton and Macalester because of the weather, and she was used to it! We live in Pennsylvania now (next door to Ohio) and can’t believe how mild the winters are compared to Minnesota. </p>
<p>Kenyon is same weather as Oberlin. Washington state doesn’t get as cold as Ohio but it rains CONSTANTLY.</p>
