my thoughts, not exhaustive and certainly not very deep

The other day, I heard some soul say the words, “If you don’t like the weather, just wait five minutes and it will change.”  I understand the intended humor in such a statement, but it is wasted on me.  I simply don’t find such humor funny.

But, I did get to thinking about the phrase the other day and it’s use.  In this case, it was used to describe the meteorology of a northern state that shall remain unnamed in this blog.  But I have also heard this phrase used to describe the weather in the state in which andythinks was reared, as well as the state in which I currently reside.

This makes one ask the question, [Ed. not begs the question, which is very commonly misused] is there a geographical location in which this phrase would not work.  Is there a place in which the more appropriate phrase would be, “If you don’t like the weather, leave.”  Maybe Arizona?
