Field notes
Mild winters (4–8°C average, occasional cold snaps), hot humid summers (27°C+, June–September). Tornado season (March–May) is the recurring severe-weather event — 2020 and 2023 were both bad years. Spring and fall are the postcard windows; spring brings the worst pollen on the continent.
