| Climate |
| t's a common saying in some parts but certainly true here:
if you don't like Texas weather, just wait a minute. While Austin
weather doesn't normally see huge extremes, the change between
hot and cold or dry and wet happen so quickly that it can seem
like an extreme change. In general, Central Texas has a temperate
climate with mild winters. However, our summers can get hot
and stay hot for weeks on end. |
