There are also many climate controlled (heat and ac) arenas where the trials are now held. We've gotten spoiled. On the coasts, they still have many outdoor shows. We never have to worry about the weather, except for driving purposes.
However, most agility schools here teach outdoors, as we can go year-round. I've always felt bad for the folks up north. I can train in my back yard all year long, and you guys are limited to when your training facilities are open in the winter months.
