Native Texan here: the &quot;average&quot; is in the high 90s but July and August regularly hit--and stay at--100-and-above afternoon temperatures.  The hot weather starts around late May and doesn&#x27;t really wrap up until September.  Temperature swings can also be brutal, 101 at 2pm, 50 at 10pm.<p>Yes, there&#x27;s air conditioning but you will pay handsomely and but you have to be inside to &quot;enjoy&quot; it.  My two-month bill from Seattle City Light last August was 1&#x2F;3rd what my last one-month August bill was in Texas.<p>One of the big reasons I left Texas for Seattle was the weather.
