"In Fahrenheit degrees, guess what the average temperature is in North America in May. "

Is there an actual known answer to this? I know we’re trying to guess the most popular answer, but I’m curious how close we actually are.

68

Top ten has become a rarity for me; I’ll take it. I was kind of surprised by the answer “strawberries” for #9. Here, strawberries come into season in December/January, so they’re hard to think of as a “spring” fruit.

69

My worst. Feud. Showing. Ever.

Ugh.

:: slumps off to watch the snow melt ::

I originally guessed 62 degrees and then I thought I’d be better off picking either 60 or 65 degrees because they’d be more popular guesses. So I checked online and found that the actual average temperature is right around 60 degrees.
