"You know what they say about weather in __________: 'If you don't like it, just wait 5 minutes and it will change.'"

That's a common one here in Michigan.

You missed the point.  It's a common one everywhere.  Everyone thinks their state's weather is more variable than everyone else's.  Michigan isn't unique in that regard.

And I would argue that this thread is a way to resolve which state you can actually apply that sentiment to. I don't believe I've seen anyone beat my 85° swing in a week for Colorado.

So na-nah-na-nah-boo-boo. I win.

I don't recall anyone beating it either.  But, if someone were to beat it, it would probably be someone from Montana or the Dakotas.

I feel like they're quick to drop, but less quick to warm up, anecdotally of course.

How did a human being consciously decide to write the Washington one? Is he being serious? Can he comprehend the words on the screen?

I'm so guilty of parroting and encouraging this statement for Maryland, but we're at one of the central latitudes of the U.S. so we have an element of validity in ours.

East of the Cascades, it could definitely apply (just like anywhere else). West of the Cascades, less so for sure.

As suspected.  The Dakotas.
