Seriously, we do get some cold weather here every now and again. It may snow once a year if we are lucky. But our winters usually bring cold weather with near freezing rain. I worked on the gulf coast a couple of years ago and for those that don't know, it even gets near freezing temps. Was working one day, right on the sea wall in the bay; Wind was blowing up to 35 miles an hour, in near freezing rain. Now that sucks. Had to keep wiping the ice off my hard hat. Everything had ice on it. Now that sucked. Had ice hanging off the bucket and boom.
