But the weather is fabulous. It's almost 80 degrees right now, no wind, clear skies.
No hurricanes, no floods, rare snow, no tornadoes. We did have a (man made) fire 2 years ago.
It gets a bit breezy in the spring. Here at 4600 ft, it's never that hot, never that cold (for long).

like me!

I have to have a minimum of 60% humidity or my nose starts to bleed because it's too "dry"
And I've seen 1-cm arcs from my fingers to doorknobs, that then numb my fingers for several minutes. Give me wet air any day!

The only part of AZ I could stand was between Williams and the Grand Canyon. The rest of the place deserves that joke that it's too hot in AZ for preachers to scare people with hell.

And it's hot enough to melt me. I'm a snow person.
