in MS for a few years. My husband had 2 job offers before we moved- one here and one in the San Antonio area. So when it gets cold I check the San Antonio weather report and sigh deeply. Going snow blower shopping this weekend!

And it isn't a daily thing. It is a cumulative thing. Lack of rain. Having to hand water an entire lawn in 100 degree weather due to water restrictions. Did you know it takes an hour to do that? (This will only put down about 1/4 inch and a yard needs 1 inch)

Temps that don't get below 70 for 5 months. (This includes night)
