It will recover, it always does
We had two days of Winter in October. It got down to 34 degrees one night this past week. I think it was a little colder than that on our patio. Don’t ask me how I know, I just do.
I was saying to everyone yesterday (When it was 75 degrees) “We had two days of winter in Tucson and now it’s over.”
Then today it jumped up to 85 so far, but it might make it up to 86 before the afternoon is over.
What about the rest of the week.
Oh, it’s going to be in the mid 80’s all week.
Are the Snowbirds coming to Tucson?
No, they are already here. How do we know. There are tell tale signs of the arrival of snowbirds in Tucson.
- Traffic around town doubles
- Out of state license plates are everywhere
- Restaurants are happy again
- RV Parks are filling up all over town
- Second home buyers are back in the market
- Golf courses are filling up
Those are a few of the ways we know the snowbirds are back in Tucson.
Why so early?
There are a couple of reasons:
- The weather has turned cold and two things drive snowbirds to Tucson cold weather and snow
- This is an off year for elections.
Many people will stay home to vote on elections. But this year, many either don’t have local elections or they were able to vote absentee.
The weather is Wonderful in Tucson
Every year I say the same thing when it gets to be November. “This is why we live in Tucson”. The next 8 months are going to be great. Shorts, sandals and outdoor eating will fill the schedules and lots of good grilling smells will fill the air.
Tucson Golf Homes
I did mention that golf courses start filling up this time of year. It is true. And to make the search easier for those wanting to buy a home on or near a golf course I’ve put together a new set of searches to make it “EASY” to search for golf homes in Tucson. I’ll be writing some more about this tomorrow, but for those wanting a sneak peek, here is the link to Tucson Golf Homes.
