Why You Like Covering Laredo: We have a climate unique to North America. Laredo has a semiarid, subtropical climate. What makes it unique is the occasional access to hot dry air from the Mexican Plateau. I can't believe that I have witnessed 103 F on a Feb. 20, 105 F on a March 6th, and 110 F on a April 8th!
