Let’s talk about Texas summers. You know, that time of year when the state collectively becomes a giant, outdoor oven. It's like Mother Nature decided to give the Lone Star State a big, sweaty hug.
This summer, Texas has officially earned its nickname as the "Lone Star State" - because it feels like the whole state is just one big, blazing star. We're talking temperatures that would make a pizza jealous. It's gotten so hot that even the cacti are sweating. I’m pretty sure the lizards are wearing sunglasses.
