Here in the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) area we've been averaging in the mid 70's Fahrenheit (20's Celcius). Overall, it's been pretty nice although our humidity is starting to rise again so it's getting that "sticky" feeling.
What we really need here though is some rain. We've been on what they call "Stage 3 Water Restrictions" since last June. This means we're only allowed to water lawns via sprinkler systems one day a week, no washing our cars in our driveways, etc. We can hand water plants, and we can use soaker hoses around the base of our homes to keep the ground moist there to prevent our foundations from settling and cracking. We've had some rain to bring the various resevoirs back up, but most are still 8 to 10 feet below normal.
The bottom line, if you want to send your snow our way, we'll be happy to melt it down into water
