It was never snowy and it was always beautiful weather even when I went in February. My clients told me it was rare. From reading you I guess I was lucky and it was rare. While I love snow. I prefer it for a few months, not half the year. I love your fortitude but I no longer have it. :-) I don't want to live anywhere that doesn't have 4 seasons, I just think I prefer the seasons to be a bit more equal.
