Arizona environment?

ok for all you people who live in arizona whats it like...the weather..is it that humid? do you see lots of rattle snakes?Arizona environment?
It's humid only during the monsoon storm season, mid-July to the end of August. Although humid, this is when we get a reprieve from the heat. :) No snow in the winter unless you want it, just drive 2 hours North %26amp; you can play or ski. 50 is a cold day, 115 is a hot one - both normal.



I've NEVER seen a rattlesnake (never say never , right?) %26amp; I've lived here my entire life, 31 yrs.



Scottsdale is about 20 minutes from Tempe by using the freeways (101 to the 202). I live in Scottsdale %26amp; take my kids to the Tempe Town Lake or Phx Zoo regularly, a quick trip except in rush hour.
haha.. ive lived in arizona all my life, and only saw two rattlesnakes when i went out into the foothills, which is really their territory, not ours :)

phoenix is beautiful, great weather, very hot in summer of course, but its a dry heat, the fall and spring are perfect, and the winters are cold but rather mild.

tempe is nice, a little older, and scottsdale is beautiful and clean and safe with a majority of its inhabitants being high-income.

if you like it warm, you would like it there.. lots of stuff to do.. its not just a little desert town like some people may think.Arizona environment?
It's only humid for a few weeks in the summer, otherwise it's just hot hot hot from June/July- September. I've lived in the Phoenix area for more than 20 years and never seen a rattlesnake outside of the zoo. Tempe and Scottsdale are right next to eachother, but Scottsdale is so spread out you could be more than 20 miles from Tempe.
it is nice i love it here because of the beautiful scenery. and the mountains. yes it is hot here in the summer months and really nice in the winter months not so hot. no, don't see alot of rattle snakes. but i like the cactus.Arizona environment?
Arizona is great, we have all kinds of weather; cold in the north, hot in the south. Sometimes humid, but mostly dry.



I have seen the occasional rattlesnake while out hiking, but have never been bitten because I go my way (quickly) and they go theirs.



Scottsdale is directly north of Tempe.
The weather is great in AZ! The summers are a little warm (usually around 110-115 degrees on any given day) but its not humid, its intense though lol. So even though its that hot, it really doesn't feel like its up that high. I mean don't get me wrong its still friggin hot but what state isn't in July!



The most beautiful seasons though are the fall and spring. Its around 75 degrees or cooler sometimes and breezy. PERFECT!



Winter is cold but never snows. Its usually in the 60s late December, thats the coldest! Its actually enjoyable if you like the cold!



There are snakes in certain areas, especially up close towards the mountains. I lived in Ahwatukee, which almost the most southern city in the Phoenix Metro system and I would always see javalinas. They are basically wild hogs, and they usually are in families! So just dont bother them and they wont bother you ... lol!
Yes, there's Rattlesnakes, Scorpions, Tarantula's and even Jackalopes............lol.

I've been in Phoenix 15 years and never seen a rattlesnake, well I take that back, it was at the zoo.



October - March is perfect weather. Summers are hot, but if you get out of town every once in a while, it's not too bad, unless you work outside.
