About the Weather

This is what it's all about! This it what allows us to spend our days being out and about and active through the winter months.

Average temperatures through the winter months in the Phoenix area are similar to early summer in the northern U.S. and Canada. But even better.

There are five really important benefits
to winter life in Arizona. Usually much more conducive to outdoor life than most northerners have ever experienced.

  1. Consistent and pleasant temperature
  2. Sunshine 
  3. Lack of wind
  4. Low humidity
  5. Almost no bugs or other annoying critters

The following charts provide an indication of averages throughout the winter months. Of course these are just averages and there can be variances. But probably far more consistent than that experienced in the north.

And the bugs. Have we mentioned that before? Probably doesn't fit under 'weather' but it is a huge benefit to outdoor life.

 

"I never thought that critters would also hibernate in warm climates, but they do. During a six week period I saw exactly two bugs. I never realized before how pleasant it can be to have nice summer days outdoors without bug spray or swatting the critters off the food. It is quite pleasant. But, of course, in the early fall and late spring they are around."
