I moved here from Minnesota. I know how bad the weather is in February.
The major differences here beside the weather (70 something and sunny
today) is the scenery. The only green you will find is in the cactus,
mesquite, palm trees, and on the golf course. It is beautiful like the
midwest, but in its own way. But, if you want forest, go to Mt. Lemmon
(near Tucson) or drive about two hours north into the mountains and you
will see pine forest. But, one thing that is very important... you know
how you get the blast of heat from your oven when you open it to make a
pizza? Well, that is how hot it gets here in the summer. It took me two
years to fully get used to it. Once you do, you'll never want to live
in a cold climate again. But, 300+ days of sun every year is hard to argue
with.
