This week, Houston hit a record, but not the kind we celebrate. We’ve now logged the most 80°+ days in a single year… and we still have more than a month left, with more 80s on the way.
What really stands out is that every top year for 80-degree days has happened since 2012. That’s based on records going all the way back to 1877, more than 140 years of data.
But honestly, what fascinated me most wasn’t the record itself. It was the reaction from so many of you on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. So in today’s newsletter, I’m taking a closer look at your comments and what this record really says about our weather.

“Funny because the summer was pretty mild. The problem is, it’s been a mild summer since May, and it’s still going in mid-November.”
