And although I am in Arizona and Frank is 225 miles south of me,.....and a lot lower in elevation (unless he lives on a mountain) well lets just say that Arizona is not the same throughout. It may "rarely" snow in the low desert, but it definitely snows up here, and this winter we were -4 below on New Year's Eve. I use the outside weather as my key to when to shut them down and when to bring them back up.

It won't be the same everywhere. And every species is different. I can still find Wandering garter snakes out on a sunny afternoon in November even though the nights are below 32 degrees......and of course rattlesnakes come out of their dens to bask in the sun during the warmer part of the day. But where I live, I have never seen a cal king out and about during November, December, January, and February. Obviously different in the lower elevation. I see them on my property in March through October.
