The original post says "place in the US," not state, so the answer is the Marshall Islands, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico or Deigo Garcia.

Lawrence, that's a very wimpy, head-in-the-sand position to take.<BR>&quot;I can't predict the weather on any one day so what's the use trying to guess?&quot;<BR><BR>That's like saying &quot;I'm not positive I'll live long enough to retire so why bother saving any money?&quot;<BR><BR>Almost everything you plan in life is based on probabilities. You do the best you can with whatever info you can find.<BR>You can't know your house is a good investment...but you buy it based on likelihood that it will be.<BR>You can't know your plane will land safely, but you board based on the high probability that it will.<BR><BR>Using weather averages is no different. It's the best you can do. <BR>You sound like a little old lady.

Can you say LATIN AMERICA, NEW ZEALAND, COSTA RICA?

And what part of the US domain would Latin America and New Zealand fall under?<BR><BR>I believe the question specified US sites.

Death Valley isn't in the 75 degrees range but it's still warm.<BR><BR>http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/climatology/daily/USCA0286?climoMonth=1<BR><BR>Utahtea<BR><BR>

Stop with the California suggestions.<BR><BR>The original question said the goal was 75 degrees.<BR><BR>No place in California reaches that level. Palm Springs avg high in January is only 69. And because it's dry there, the 69 is not a balmy 69 degrees.<BR>Death Valley is only 64 during the day, and 37 at night.<BR><BR>Again, the answer is south Florida or leave the continental US.
