Yep, Chuck you are right, we can't fly comfortably year round here. We actually have two building seasons here in Dallas. Late December through March, when you are lucky to find a weekend when the temps get into the 50's and the winds are below15 MPH. The other is July through Mid-September when only an idiot would stand out in the direct sunlight flying model airplanes after 10:00 AM and before 8:00 PM. :^0
One does, however have a weekend like last weekend, before the white stuff fell yesterday. Two days in a row of winds below 10 MPH, temps running from the 30's in the morning to the upper 50's and 60's at mid afternoon. BTW the thermal activity was awesome!
