I agree with Whirly. If we get a nice big high-pressure system, we can get some beautiful weathe in the winter. Also, I think it's important to do at least some of your training during the winter, so that your instructor can help you out making those go/no-go decisions - I'd hate to do my PPL in 3 months over June-August, then come October/November I'm faced with some marginal weather, maybe a bit of mist reducing viz to a little below what I'm used to, and I don't have the experience of making those decisions.

Just be prepared to be patient and wait for the weather to co-operate!
