Dallas: Where the Sun Takes Up Permanent Residence - 2024 Edition
Ah, Dallas. City of cowboys, steakhouses, and apparently, a never-ending love affair with the sun. We all know the drill: summer rolls in, your air conditioner becomes your best friend, and you swear you could fry an egg on the sidewalk. But hey, at least we have barbeques, right?
But this year, something feels different. Maybe it's the collective heatstroke haze clouding our judgment, or perhaps it's because we're pretty sure we saw a tumbleweed wearing sunglasses rolling down Main Street. Whatever the reason, the question on everyone's sweat-drenched lips is:
How Many Days Has Dallas Been a Molten Hellscape This Year?
QuickTip: Treat each section as a mini-guide.
The answer, my friends, might surprise you (or maybe it won't, because let's be real, it's Dallas). As of today, May 12th, 2024, we've only officially hit 100 degrees a measly twice. Now, hold on to your cowboy hats before you start celebrating. There's a big ol' BUT coming your way faster than a heat wave in August.
Tip: Write down what you learned.

But Wait, There's More (Sweat!)

Here's the thing: May is still young (much like our hopes for a mild summer). The real scorcher usually rolls in around June and doesn't leave for a socially awkward handshake-length goodbye until September.
Tip: Context builds as you keep reading.
So, while we can technically say Dallas hasn't been officially a blazing inferno for that many days, let's be honest. It feels like a lifetime. We've all practically traded in our jeans for fireproof jumpsuits and our social lives for a permanent Netflix binge.
The Official Dallas Summer Fun-Fact You Never Asked For:
Tip: Reread key phrases to strengthen memory.
Did you know that according to the National Weather Service, in the glorious year of 2023, Dallas basked (or rather, broiled) in the glory of 100-degree weather for a whopping 55 days? 55 DAYS. That's like spending two months living on the surface of the sun.
So, buckle up, buttercup. Summer is coming, and it's bringing its fiery wrath with it. But hey, at least we can take comfort in knowing that misery loves company, and Dallasites are all in this sweaty mess together. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go refill my water bottle and practice my best heatstroke prevention techniques (spoiler alert: it involves copious amounts of ice cream).
