I expect the following (more of the same):

1.  More climate summit meetings;
2.  More declarations that we aren't doing enough;
3.  More promises to do more;
4.  Throw some money at the problem;
5.  Rinse and repeat.

Without some realistic plan, it's all just political noise to me.

we are currently in a patch of nice spring weather with highs in the low 80s and lows upper 60s

nice time of year

but Texas being Texas we could still get storm fronts so its not spring yet

I don't ever recall a freeze in Austin after about March 20th.  I suppose it's possible.

Well yeah, we always get massive thunderstorms in the Spring.  That part of our season has only just begun, it'll continue to increase in April, all the way through June.  Basically "tornado season" here in Texico.

Overall, I like the weather here pretty much.  Spring and fall are great, as usual, and summer is not that bad.  Winter is winter, it gets chilly, but manageable.

Cincinnati in July and August could be unmanageable at times, just really oppressive humidity.

You ought to try Houston, San Antonio or Austin in July and August if you want to see what real heat and humidity is like

I still will take that over having to shovel my driveway or putting on snow tires

I used to work with Shell Chemical in Houston on a joint project, I've been there in July and August, and it indeed was heinous.

They wanted to name their research center after Jimmy Doolittle, who was their R&D VP for some years, but couldn't.

I've acclimated very well to the heat and humidity here in the summer. By September though.. you just want it gone.

Probably not unlike the folks that like a little bit of snow and a fire in the fireplace, but after 4 or 5 months if it, grow very weary.

Which of course, is not me.  I loathe any and all snow, unless it's on a mountain, and I have a couple of boards strapped to my feet.
