Mild Piedmont winters with occasional snow or ice events. Most days are comfortable for regular outdoor routines, though icy mornings may require caution on trails. Salem Lake trails can be peaceful and uncrowded during winter months, making for pleasant walks with your pet.

Long, pleasant spring days are perfect for exploring the greenway system and Salem Lake with your pet. Pollen counts are very high in the Piedmont, so watch for allergy symptoms in sensitive pets. This is the best time for outdoor training sessions and socialization.

Hot and humid conditions require early morning or evening exercise schedules. Carry water on every walk and seek shaded greenway sections for the most comfortable routes. Afternoon thunderstorms are common, so have indoor enrichment activities as a backup.
