Many reading this are not Texans and frankly neither am I. And everyone knows that summer is hot in Texas, because based on science and geography lessons, Texas is closer to the equator, therefore closer to the sun, than most US states. And I'm currently a veteran of South Arkansas and Western Kansas (as weird as that sounds Kansans understand what I mean) summers. But what do typical summer days look like in Dallas, TX?

This may or may not surprise you but geez it's HOT here! And this is just June! Not the hot months of July and August. In fact according to the calendar this is still considered spring till the 22nd.
Okay Stacey! I have to beg to differ! It is HOT there.....we just spent a week and a half around Houston, but I also grew up in southern Arizona, and while it is HOTTTTT like you said, I would take it any day over 95 degrees with 98% humidity, which feels like 104.......you couldn't have forgotten how misearble that it....I still say southern AR wins the miserable race! :). And this talk about humidity there....I had to laugh because the news kept saying how humid it was while we were there, and Nate and I both mentioned it to each other at various points during our stay how
ReplyDeletenice it was to not have the humidity like AR!!!! I guess it's all perspective! Kati
True the humidity here is NOTHING compared to what Camden had! I remember going outside and my shirt would be soaked. But the tall trees did give you some shade from direct sunlight.
