We effectively have two months to be on watch now. Though it has not happened in close to 25 years, we can technically still get smacked by something all the way to mid October.

All I know is Texas is set to broil until something from the gulf comes into dislodge the high pressure and heat.

High pressure always wins that battle
Yep. And if the choices are a high with hot and relatively dry weather or a fuggin tropical system above a depression strength...I'll take the high pressure all day and twice on Sundays.

Thanks. Symptom of catching the olds. "30 years ago" used to mean 1970s, and now it means 1993. Oof.

Well that sounds like a problem you created yourself so no sympathy from us either.

Obviously it is always hot in Houston during the summer, but some summers are more miserable then others. There was a summer within the last few years where the high never got to 100F. This summer is approaching 2011 levels of suck.

Two most memorable summers for me are 1998 and 2011. I think 98 was the first time I heard of El Nino and that summer was brutal in College Station. In 2011 we had severe drought around here. This year I think has had more 100 degree days than I can recall. Just sucks right now.

Found this site via Google - you can plug in a city and temperature and see how many days in each year it was above a given temp:

https://www.extremeweatherwatch.com/cities/houston/yearly-days-of-100-degrees

Surprised we are only at 9 so far this year.

There's no way last year was worse than this summer. I don't believe that for a second.

You just don't remember last year. It started way early in May and didn't let up until October. At least this year we had a normal ramp up.

You are right, IAH (official weather station for Houston) shows 15 100 degrees days so far.

It has been 98 or 99 another 23 days. Since June 15th the high has been below 95 on only five days

So many different factors....but pretty sure the heat index has been worse this year. I know Space City did a comparison in mid July and the standard air temps in 2022 were higher. But factor in heat index, and this year had been hotter. Just looking at nights where we didn't get out of the 80s, it was like 8 days in 2022 vs. 20 days this year.

I've begun to sour on Lanza. I find it hard to say he's still on the "no-hype" train and not turning into your standard climate alarmist.

Yes it's hot. It's Texas and the summer. Yes this feels a lot more like 2011 than 2022, but we survived the other years and we will survive this one.

See the positive...this high pressure system is protecting us from hurricanes. I'll take that for another 2 months easily vs a harvey or Ike or whatever else might come our way.

I've pretty much quit Lanza and SCW. They've gone all in on climate change and cannot see the flaw in their own logic. Sad as they were really good when they first started. I just want the weather, not your view on how hot it is and why. It's Houston in July and August, it's going to be freaking hot so shut up or move to El Paso…or out of the state

Eh, kind of is what it is to me.

I eye roll the people who bring up 2011 anytime someone says it's hot because its not as hot as 2011 just like I eye roll people who say crime is down this year.

I get it, and I agree. But I imagine it also gets pretty boring to write about Houston weather in July and August. I've been wondering why they haven't just gone to weekly updates for this time of year.

This is like saying the covid vaccine makes covid easier to handle.


There is no benefit to a high pressure system in july that moves in to August for Houston. Maybe for Mexico and South TX, but not for Houston.

Is it ideal? No, but look at the second part of my sentence...If we have to take it for another 2 months to avoid hurricanes, I'll take it and we will survive just fine.

People forgot how hot June 2022 was. It actually cooled down in July.

Lanza is very emotional about it being hot in the summer.

I listen to Berger but tune Lanza out.
