I am a long way from Houston. In Haskell County, and it is much dryer here, that helps. We have had almost no rainfall this year, until recently.
I think the issue is comfort not heat. 100+ is not that hot depending on where you are. Now HOT, I spent 2 weeks once in Barstow, CA., straddling the 4th of July weekend and it was 116 degrees in the shade. HOT
The rain here has been mostly from I 10 north. We have a ranch about 50 miles south of Houston and we have had almost no rain there. My husbands pastures are burned up and he is hoping for a tropical storm for relief. 100+ with humidity is seriously uncomfortable heat, that’s what the “feels like” temps that the weather man talks about mean.
Where is Haskell County?
