August weather forecast
Texas, USA

August in Texas maintains the fervor of summer, exuding the kind of warmth that has become emblematic of the state's season. In its northern expanses, including locations like Seminole, there's hardly a respite from the summer heat. Morning temperatures settle around 72°F and, as the sun climbs, afternoon readings frequently venture into the 96°F range.

Central Texas, with its sprawling landscapes, continues to be a hotspot. Early mornings commence with temperatures around 80°F, and as the day unfolds, the thermostat often signals values surpassing 100°F. The southeastern coastal regions, while also experiencing such elevated temperatures, have the added nuance of high humidity due to the Gulf of Mexico's influence. This results in morning temperatures starting at 84°F and can ascend to an oppressive 106°F on particularly searing days.

August's position on the calendar does mean occasional rain showers, especially in eastern Texas. These showers, while still infrequent, are reminiscent of July's pattern - intense but short-lived, with bursts of thunder and vibrant lightning. It's worth noting that the eastern region remains more susceptible to these brief rainy episodes than the arid landscapes in the west.

Transitioning from July to August, Texas doesn't witness a significant drop in temperatures. However, with the progression of August and the impending arrival of September, there's a faint anticipation of a subtle decline in heat. While August persists in offering quintessential summer weather, its final weeks gently hint at the approaching end of Texas's blistering summer season.
