Rain, Rain, Go Away... (Sometimes)
First off, let's clear something up: Texas is not a monolithic entity when it comes to weather. It's bigger than France, for crying out loud! So, saying "how many days it rains in Texas" is like asking "how many people live in Europe". It varies wildly.
Tip: Don’t overthink — just keep reading.
- East Texas: This part of the state gets the most rain, thanks to its humid subtropical climate. Think thunderstorms, hurricanes, and the occasional "oh, crap, it's raining again" moment.
- West Texas: Dry, arid, and desert-like. Rain here is like a unicorn sighting – rare and magical.
- The rest of Texas: A mix of the two, depending on where you are.
So, How Much Rain, Then?
To give you a ballpark figure, let's focus on Houston, a city synonymous with humidity. On average, Houston gets around 104 rainy days a year. That's a lot of umbrella-juggling! But remember, this is just one city. Other parts of Texas might see half that, or double it.
Tip: Note one practical point from this post.

Rainy Days and Mondays
Now, before you start packing your rain boots and investing in a lifetime supply of hot chocolate, let's be clear: rainy days in Texas aren't necessarily dreary. Sure, there are those days when the rain comes down in sheets and you'd rather be a cat curled up in a sunny spot. But there are also those glorious spring showers that bring out the fresh green smells, and the summer thunderstorms that clear the air and cool things down.
