Yes, the cold can surprise us. In a park in Goodyear waiting to watch another hockey game in Glendale, or a MLB Spring Training, baseball game, either one of half a dozen in the area, we got a call from Daughter and SIL that they weren"t coming down to Phoenix, work commitments I think. Next day or so, the temp dipped to 25 F.with a bitter wind. Needed more propane for our Buddy Heater. Good thing they were not coming, it would have been a huge disappointment, the pool was outdoors at that Park.
People were prepared, in Mexico. Most of us had weathered the cold just coming down, and I know we always were ready with heavy coats, even for camping around Guad at over 4500 feet, but the balanarios were nice in the mornings. Our first trip to Tenacatita was January, 2003. As February rolled around we went to bed, outside it was 83 degrees, in the morning, after a sleepless night, it was still 83 degrees.
