It's easy to relate the seasons to where you grew up but when you move across or around the country the weather may be disorientating for a year or two.
March in North Dakota March in Arizona
We see a lot of disorientation or reorientation with folks moving to the Minot area from Southern climates. The Minot Air Force base and the Western North Dakota oil fields bring a lot of people up here that had never experienced snow or sub-zero temperatures before in their lives.
It was rare that I worked with clients prior to their arrival here in Minot North Dakota but it did happen on occasion. When visiting with them on the phone I would ask if they were familiar with a Northern climate and if not I would fill them in verbally and if they wanted I volunteered to send them a "Northern States survival list".
If I were to move to a Southern climate what advice would you give to me?
