Is Winter Over in Houston? A Question for the Ages (or at Least This Year)
Houston, Texas – the city where it’s always summer, except when it’s not. You know what I’m talking about. One day you’re sweating through your winter coat, and the next you’re shivering in your swim trunks. It’s like Houston weather is a rollercoaster with no safety harnesses.
Winter in Houston: A Brief Encounter
Let’s be honest, winter in Houston is more like a brief fling than a committed relationship. It shows up, drops a few hints about being cold, and then promptly disappears, leaving us scratching our heads and wondering if it was all a dream. But for those few precious weeks when the temperature dips below 70°F, Houstonians rejoice! We break out our sweaters (or at least the ones we haven’t donated yet), and we act like we've never seen cold weather before.
So, When Does This Winter Charade End?
The real question is, when does Houston decide it’s had enough of this "winter" nonsense and just give up? Is it when the first person is spotted wearing shorts? Or maybe when the local ice cream shops start running out of Rocky Road? Unfortunately, there's no definitive answer. Houston weather is as unpredictable as a toddler on a sugar rush.
One thing's for sure: By the time March rolls around, we're all ready to ditch the sweaters and embrace the humidity. But hey, at least we don’t have to shovel snow!
How to Survive Houston's Winter (or Lack Thereof)
- How to dress for Houston winter: Layers, my friend. Layers. And maybe a scarf for good measure.
- How to find indoor activities in Houston: Museums, shopping malls, and endless dining options.
- How to embrace the warmth: Plan a beach day, even if it's just in your backyard.
- How to cope with the humidity: Invest in a good dehumidifier and embrace the frizz.
- How to stay sane during allergy season: Invest in good allergy medication and consider moving to Alaska (just kidding).
So, there you have it. Winter in Houston is a fickle beast, but it’s also what makes this city so uniquely charming.
Remember: If you ever find yourself questioning the sanity of the Houston weather, you're not alone. Just grab a margarita and enjoy the ride.
