Houston, We Have a Temperature Problem (Probably)
Is it Hot in Here, or is it Just Houston?
Let's talk about Houston weather, shall we? Because if there's one thing Houston knows how to do, it's heat. It's like the city has a personal vendetta against ice cubes.
Now, I'm not saying Houston is a furnace, but if you left a pizza on the sidewalk, it would probably be ready to eat in under 10 minutes. And don't even get me started on the humidity. It's like walking around in a sauna with a side of swamp.
So, What's the Actual Temperature?
I know, I know. You didn't come here for witty banter about Houston's climate (although, let's be honest, it's pretty entertaining). You want to know the actual temperature. Well, buckle up, because here's the deal:
- It's Hot. Like, really hot. We're talking "I-just-stepped-out-of-an-oven" kind of hot.
- It's Humid. Enough said.
- It's Probably Not Getting Cooler Anytime Soon. Sorry to break it to you, but Houston summers are a marathon, not a sprint.
