I live in Houston, Texas, and use Mobil 1 15W-50 the year around (very rarely see 32 degrees F). You only need the low viscosity for start-up in cold weather, otherwise the higher the viscosity the better for engine longevity at the slight cost of a fraction of a gallon of fuel due to the increased fluid friction of the higher viscosity oil.
