Right now, with the prospects of some big time cold, severe weather just doesn't interest me. I can see warmth and severe weather in Houston any month of the year. I have a small window for cold and potential frozen precip.
I wouldn't go that far. You *could* see severe weather anytime of the year, but the last few years have been pretty uneventful, and I see little that promises snow the next two weeks, which is the only time cold weather is worth it.
That's exactly what I meant. In any given month, we can see Severe weather in Houston. We can only see snow/ice in a 8-10 week window. IMO, Winter Weather (especially wicked Winter Weather) is more exciting than Severe Weather.... again, that's just my opinion.
I'm more comfortable sitting on my porch in 30 degree weather than 80-100 degree weather, therefore I love Winter and its prospects for colder temperatures. Summers around here need to go die a fiery hellish death.
