MidtownCoog Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Low as compared to the average Houston summers?Humidity has always been low in the Summer contrary to popular opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevfiv Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 It looks like historically we typically have levels in the 70-80% range around this time...but i don't do stats well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 It's humid as all get out at 7:00AM. Are you people serious?I thought to myself that I spoke to soon this morning as I was getting ready and the weatherman told me humidity would be 91% today, lolBut before today, I could only remember one, maybe two days since it has been warm and thought to myself that it felt really sticky and humid.

HtownWxBoy Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 It's humid as all get out at 7:00AM. Are you people serious?It's always the most humid during the evening and early morning hours during the summer months like that... humidity goes down as the temperature rises... that's why it's felt drier over the past several days when it's been so hot during the afternoons.

MidtownCoog Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I love the evenings this time of year when there is a nice breeze. But the mornings are terrible.Somebody should go ask someone who works outside about how dry it has been lately.All the Interdweebs with soft hands would be shocked.

Vertigo58 Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 The glare from the freaking hot blazing sun is what really gets me. Eyes dry out quick and sunglasses I rarely use. Eye drops are just a temp fix. Past weekends have been so extreme I just stay inside and watch DVDs until late eveing venture out, grass is so high I dont care. Hate glare, they say it actually can burn the retna's? Thats all I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 All I can say is I was out hitting foam golf balls in my front yard last night around 7ish and did not get bit by a mosquito once. And I wasn't sweatin up a storm either. It was niiiice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NenaE Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Get a pool. It will have a dramatic effect on your opinion of hot weather. I was out at lunch today and kept thinking how great the weather was.I was looking through some friends "pool" brochures over the weekend, WOW, the choices you have! 10 shades of blue water, amazing. Not to mention the tile choices. Can easily be overdone. Have to say I like the classic pool styles the best, minus the diving board. White limestone looking walkway edges, with deep blue-green water, and grass around the pool, too. HEAVEN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a white pool and the water looks blue (unless I fill it with filthy people, then it gets a little brown). And you have to get a diving board.

I've got a white pool and the water looks blue (unless I fill it with filthy people, then it gets a little brown). And you have to get a diving board. I believe it has to do with the color of the lining, casts different shades of blue. One of my recent patio magazines showed one pool that was deep blue, looked like a lagoon or pond. The detailed description told of a green-grey lining or paint color. Also, the rough natural rock edges could be a problem, if drinking is involved. All I know is the brochure had many different water colors (blue and green and aqua) /w "recommended" or paired gravel sidewalk colors. Could not believe it. I've heard it makes more sense to buy a house w/pool already there. Unless you have unlimited amounts of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vertigo58 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Finally got some good amount of rain. Filled up the rain barrels too. Now my yard can stop splitting down the middle with that wide seismic faultline crack that formed as a result of the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbannizer Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Best weather ever today. Made for a great bike ride. Its been great most of the time this past 2 weeks. ...but it comes with a consequence... We are in a deficit in rain and grass/forests fires have been starting here and throught Texas due to the rain deficit, wind, and low humidity.

crunchtastic Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 My roofer called about 8:30 and said it was raining a little on him down in Seabrook, and he was going to call the crew off the job for the day. Still no rain here at the job site. I wonder if the Super Bowl has anything to do with it .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can feel humidity here but it has'nt rained yet. I guess the 4o% chance of rain today was incorrect. Here's the Current drought condition from www.drought.gov (updated every week.) Drought conditions here are likely to persist/develope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20thStDad Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 It is no longer nice out. Going for a walk this morning was gross, just wet and humid and nasty with mosquitos. Looking at the 10 day forecast, all of the lows are now in the 70s. Sucks. October can't come fast enough. I hope it rains a lot between now and then.

20thStDad Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I know it's August and it's above 90 by now, but it felt pretty damn nice this morning. We had a nice walk around the bayou along with many others who were out. Maybe September can start us off by cooling down the nights and mornings, then we'll work our way to decent days. It the battle between the "So nice out!" thread versus the "Damn it's hot!" thread, I really hope this one gets more play in the next month.

When u are used to upper 70s in the morning, low to mid 70s can feel cool! ha ha Looks like our afternoon temps will be in the low 90s for the upcoming week... that's going to feel great compared to the mid to upper 90s and even low 100s we have seen most of the summer! September begins on Tuesday it's all downhill (temperature-wise) from there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
