Even temps in the 80's can be miserable if the humidity is high. Do you all have high humidity as we do here in Texas most summers?

Just saw a TV ad showing a roasted turkey ringed by whole cranberries reminding me Thanksgiving is just next month!

yorkietalkjilly · 10-06-2013, 10:53 AM

And the Christmas tree goes up next month!!!

Oh my goodness it's not cold at all. I live for this kind of weather.

I was at the store earlier this morning and I swear these Texans are dressed in coats and sweats. LOL Here I was with capris and flip flops on. LOL

Oh, we do live for cold. Cold is good and this is cold to native Texans I grew up with. We kinda live for cold after our hot summers. Prob. those people bundled up were the transplants as we Texans usually barely get a jacket on by January. I don't even have a winter coat or hat and actually don't know anyone that does. Summers usually get you so tired of hot weather, you enjoy feeling good cold air.

Now when it was down below 10 degrees the year of the Superbowl, ice and snow and the electricity was going out 3 or 4 times that one day, I did wear two sweatshirts and a jacket, gloves outside - still no hat. LOL. That was what we tend to call real cold and I sure was glad we didn't have that to look forward to winter after winter! I think the low 20's is about as cold as this Texan likes it.

54 degrees and sunny this morning in San Antonio. It's still only 77 at 3PM with lots of sun. Cookie was just going nuts when we went on a walk a few hours ago; she wanted to run the whole way around the park practically, so I was running with her while holding the leash. This has been without a doubt the nicest day of the entire year of 2013 in South Texas. Just got back from a nice walk at a Commanche overlook in town.

Carmeow · 10-06-2013, 01:04 PM

I wore a coat to work this morning. When I left work at 3pm I figured I wouldn't need it BC it would have warmed up, but it was still a bit chilly! Lol. We are nuts. The people from up north would probably wear shorts in this weather

I'm a flipflops-365-days-a-year kinda gal and as soon as I came home I put on my fuzzy socks and lay under the blanket. Brrrr.

LOL. Oh, I live for this kind of weather to finally show up after a long, hot summer. It's glorious to feel cold w/o AC running.

Yeah, humidity is the main thing that affects comfort for me. Today our dew point was in the 30 degrees to low 40 degrees, which made our 79 degree high temperature feel so incredible. When that dew point is at 65 or 70 degrees, a 79 degree temperature doesn't feel good at all though. It gets really unbearable when the dew point gets near 80 degrees, which it did a couple of times this summer at night in South Texas (though 74-76 degrees was about the standard nighttime dew point, which would make your face feel sticky as hell).

Gotta go hop in front of the AC when the dew point jumps over 75 so that some of the water can be taken out of the air by the lower temperature.
