I don't mind winter, but I HATE the ice, because everything shuts down, even with just a little bit, and if we get enough ice, the power lines get coated, and there's always the threat of losing power. We get it about once a year here in North Texas, and because we get it so infrequently, we don't have all that equipment that those of you up north have. They usually treat roadways with some kind of a liquid mixture, and sand is used on some small bridges and some streets.
The summers are very hot, and the last couple of years we've had temperatures up to 109 degrees F WITH humidity.
