bruce_oneal Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 we don't get too many dry, sunny, mild days (and cool nights) like this! i am loving houston right now! (well, i always love houston, but not always the weather...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VelvetJ Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Actually I would say this is pretty typical for October in terms of temps ( maybe it has been a degree or two warmer than normal). I would expect a major cold front either the second or third week in November to REALLY cool things off, where we are talking highs in the 50's-60's average.Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

VelvetJ Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I've always considered October to be the beginning of humane period of living in Houston. I've always considered it to be quite tolerable now through May, and this is coming from someone who despises the heat.(By the way, I have just discovered your blog bruce and am enjoying it.)

sevfiv Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 this is definitely my favorite time of year...it always seems like during the hottest times of year, i forget what it's like when it's not hot here, and when october rolls around, i'm like "WOW, this is so great and new..." haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrothead Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Our summers are so long and ungodly that I think we all forget how nice it is during the other 6 months of the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hokieone Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I always explain our summers as being Houston's version of a nasty winter somewhere else. The kind of weather where you just don't want to do anything except be inside, whereas elsewhere it would be so cold and miserable you just want to be inside. I agree that October - about early May is really pretty nice. Even 40's in December is pretty pleasant. The snow we had this year was about the most ideal snow you could ever have. Falls enough to cover and have fun in, gone by the next day. I don't find the weather here that bad, but I do agree I wish the summers were a little cooler at night at least.
