Review of St. George, Utah


Great climate and geography
Star Rating - 1/11/2006
One of the most beautiful places in the states. Red rock and desert. The weather is wrong from this site, it rarely snows or gets below freezing. It's the desert! Average high in Dec/Jan is around 60 degrees even though it might drop to 33 degrees or so at night. Summers are ok - low humidity. It will hit 110 for two weeks in July, but that's about it. Scenery is second to none. If you are into the outdoors - hiking, biking and climbing are awesome. Within an hour of high elevation playing - skiing, biking, camping, whatever. Some of the local culture is a bit quirky if not down-right odd but you learn to deal with it. This area is worth it.

I'm not sure about the Washington, UT, winter temps where you live (Washington is on the northern fringe of St. George), but where we are, we have quite a few winter days of below-freezing temps, particularly overnight. We have several man-made ponds here, and we have ice on them on many mornings throughout January and February. Sometimes, the ice stays for several days or even a week or more at a time before melting off and starting the cycle all over again until the warming days of March. That doesn't mean that the days during winter are frigid--they're not. They usually warm up thanks to Old Sol quite comfortably, at least to "sweater weather." But people should not have the mistaken notion that winters here never freeze...far from it! If that's what you're seeking, better look elsewhere.
