No it has nothing to do with the weather. Here in NY if you pre-pay the pump slows down a good .75 prior to meeting the target price.

Even if you don't prepay and you hit the auth limit on a card or gallon threshold for a special promo the last buck pumps very slow.

I am not sure how they say its for safety when you just pump without prepaying. The pump acts normally then. I think its more of an issue with them not wanting the pump to go over prepaid amounts by accident. Who knows.
