Okay.......it's too cold for my liking in Houston right now! It's 36 degrees, and I'm freezing. What's it like where you live? Do you like it, hate it, indifferent to it?

    if its going to be cold it needs to be snowing and icing over so that i am stuck in the house. Otherwise make it warm. Im a born and raised Texan and i cant handle cold at all.

    But i wouldnt live anywhere else UNLESS there was a beach.

    I love this weather! Its far easier to get warm than it is to get cool IMO. This is my favorite time of the year in Texas, but I come from the north as a transplant so I might be a little jaded. lol

    I agree! Of course, anything below 65 or so is "freezing" to me! :blushing:

    Yep! I agree, it's too cold for my liking. I see all of the threads regarding cold weather running and I go on to see how people are doing it, only to realize that when they say cold, they mean "Freezing your A.. off cold!" I made it through the summer running in 100 plus degree heat, I don't know if I can make the winter running in 60 degree Freezing Cold Weather!!!

    I think it was in the 40s this morning... which is FREEZING to me. But I still refuse to turn the heater on... Cheap@$$ college kid right here...
  • I am so damn cold in the morning and at night ! I can't stand cold weather. Right now it isn't too bad (60 degrees) but its cold to me lol. Tonight it will be 36 apparently. I am broke and cheap so I no longer use the heater! Time to get some blankets and warm pjs!

    Similar here. I can handle the sunny 57 but not the morning near freezing temps! (and I'm a New Yorker)

    I graduated from Carroll High School in '85. Are you familiar with the campus? Outside breezeways!!!! Ugh. I carried a curling iron in my purse and would straighten my bangs at the beginning of each class. Darn humidity!

    I just checked our weather and it's only 41! I'm not so sure an outside run is going to be for me today. I brought sweatpants and a long sleeve tshirt to work to change into, but I'm thinking this is going to require a sweatshirt. I may have to spend my lunch at Academy buying "winter" gear!

    I went to King (RIVALS!!) because my dad was a teacher/coach there. His room was outside & I had his class... HATED going outside!! haha the frizz was out of this WORLD! I just left my hair up all the time or I probably would have carried my straightener with me too!

    Were you a Royalette? I was a Tigerette and had lots of friends over at King.

    55 and soggy today :( Felt like 70 (but the weather app says 57 now)... but warmer what with the humidity though. Made the mistake of trying to bike the hiking trails this morning and slid on a muddy patch and busted my butt. I'm sure my allergies would appreciate it if Houston weather decided to become completely cool or just completely miserable, but bouncing back and forth between the two is just not helping.
