Bad weather? Hmm..maybe the recent mild winters is why Forbes' editors overlooked Baltimore in its list of
America's Most Miserable Cities.

which also put Baltimore on the list. Can a city with great pizza really be that miserable? Well, in any case we're relieved Baltimore isn't on the list. Heaven knows the city doesn't need any more bad PR.
