I give it a B, I love the temperatures but there's not enough precipitation. I love thunderstorms and torrential rain as well as a green landscape.

B-, 4 months of hell for 8 months of very tolerable weather.
By my standards, it does have a winter.

D edging towards a C. You don't wanna be outdoors anytime from about May to October, but winters there seem quite nice. I appreciate sunshine when temps are nice but 4000 is way too much for me.

F due to summer weather. However, Laredo's weather is as worst as Phoenix.

F, perpetual F and nothing could convince me otherwise! I've visited Phoenix, Scottsdale 3 times in 3 different seasons (not that you could tell) and it was awful.

I don't like the climate, terrain, dryness, lack of trees and green, didn't mind visiting as long as I don't have to do it too often.

Everyone raves about dry climates, a dry heat! A oven is dry would I stick my head in it? I was there in mid-May for a wedding one year, took a few extra days thinking it would be so nice! It was way too warm even in mid-May. I'm active, I walk every day, usually 3 mis., so I'm not a wimp but that climate wore me out!

C, summers are too hot and dry, not enough rain and probably too much sunshine.

OK, here I am again. Just thinking why is it people move saying they hate being trapped inside for 4-6 mos. during winter so they move to a place where they can't be outside mid-day for months!
