yeah this last winter was both good and bad for us... we moved here from LA in Dec... to 55F and it was great... then Jan hit... 20F seemed harsh... then Feb, -20F... I was walking to/from home/station/work and DAMN that aint nice when you have to cover up every last piece of skin else lose it... then when you get indoors you sweat like you wouldn't believe in 5 seconds...

We tend not to get hail but we do get ice rain which IMHO is much worse. It coats every surface with a thick layer of ice...brings down trees and cables not to mention the chaos it creates on roads and walkways.

Arizona. Phoenician sun in summer, Flagstaffian snow in winter. They're only about two hours from one-another, but worlds apart in geography and climate.

Could a company sponsor me for a 2 year work permit visa? I would imagine I would have to leave the country before the end of the 2 Year period was up with a trip to Canada or (Texas I am learning
)/UK Depending on how long the process takes.

why are you looking at places to live when you can't live here?
