In the summer here, we get temps over 100 on some days, and during the winter, I've seen it get as cold as -10. The summer heat is dry, so you burn real easy.

Hey, that's not my fault! Bill, I'm a heat junky. We get pretty high humidity here, but I'll take it over the cold any day!

I would have an outside job year round, if the weather was warm or hot. I HATE working in the cold.
