Texas Weather: A Deadly Mix of Cold Fronts And Extreme Heat

The weather in Texas is always unpredictable, and sometimes deadly. All December long, kids were wearing jackets to school in the morning and walking home with them around their waists.

Now the actual cold part of winter in Texas is here with the jackets being replaced by coats, which are sometimes even staying on in the house. We are at nature's whim, but people from Northern states in the U.S. think we are a little soft.

• Floods
• Tornados
• Hurricanes
• 110+ Degree Heat
• -20+ Degree Cold
• Blackouts During Extreme Weather
