What are the characteristics of winters in Texas?

Because Texas is so geographically spread out, at any given time in the winter, you could have summerlike conditions in one part of the state and Arctic like conditions in another.  It really does depend on where in the state are you referring to.

The southern 2/3 of the coast and inland are a Mediterranean climate (mild year-round, good for growing)\n\nNorthern 1/3 is a Marine West Coast climate (cool and rainy year-round)\n\nMost of the Nevada border is a Variable Highland climate (cooler, will see snow and winds- avg. mountain climate)\n\nSoutheast California (Death Valley region) is a desert climate (meaning implied)

I  love the winter better than anything because it reminds me of home (CHICAGO!) I  have a lot of great memories growing up there but now i live in Texas-it sucks!

Try the areas around Atlanta, GA;  Houston, TX;  Dallas TX.\nYou might also try the Phoenix, Az area and the Tuscon, AZ area depending on what you mean by decent weather.  Southern California might also be a consideration for you.

temporarily it will be cold and if you have sensitive skin it can itch and turn red since salt makes the temperature go wayyy down, long term is bad because the tmeperatures can get to the negative dgrees, you can definitely get frostbite

its different in different cities here in texas

NW OHIO  38 AT 8:38 PM TOMORROW HIGH 42 LOW 34\n\nITS VERY DAMP AND GLOOMY HERE WE HAVE HAD RAIN THE PAST 5 DAYS MORE RAIN THROUGH SAT...\n\nWE REALLY COULD USE A SUNNY DAY!!!\n\nTHAT IS REALLY COLD FOR TEXAS!!!

Cold fronts, fast-moving jet stream, dry line, occluded front, and cold dry air moving into warm moist air will all contribute to extreme weather.  Often, in the southwest by the panhandles of Texas and Oklahoma as well as New Mexico, several of these factors will occur at the same time which can result in a severe weather outburst with several tornadoes, large hail, and lots of rain.

Gotta be Texas.  A VERY large portion of it is flat, and most of it is near sea level.

here in san antonio we have had like one or two cold days this whole year.i know that in san antonio we have pretty warm weather anyway but when i was younger we used to have a ton of ice storms and at least one snow storm a year but now the temp rarely climb out of the 60s in the winter.right now the high is in the upper 70s and its feb.come on people lets get with it.global warming is not a theory it is observable fact

I live in Texas... I have not been to Bivins, but I can tell you East Texas is very nice. Humid, warm, most people from East Texas have an accent, and use lots of manners. Texas is a wonderful place (Although I personally recommend a larger city)

Check this out..\nThe primary air mass classifications are given below:\n\nmT= Maritime Tropical\nmP= Maritime Polar\ncP = Continental Polar\ncT = Continental Tropical\nA = Arctic\nH = Highland\n\nMaritime Tropical\n\nThe maritime tropical air mass is most often felt in the Southeast US. In the winter this air mass is shoved toward the equator but in summer it can cover much of the US east of the Rockies. This air mass results from the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Gulf Stream. The warm waters in this region evaporate an enormous volume of water. Cold water currents tend to stabilize the atmosphere and produce little evaporation while warm waters destabilize the atmosphere and add moisture. The warm waters warm the low levels of the atmosphere. Temperatures in this air mass warm to highs in the 80's and 90's in the summer and the 70's and 80's in winter. High dewpoints characterize mT air. At all times of the year dewpoints are greater than 50 ° F. The majority of US thunderstorm activity develops within the mT airmass, most being by way of scattered thermodynamic thunderstorms and thunderstorms out ahead of fronts.\nAs the maritime tropical airmass moves over land it begins to "pick up" characteristics of a continental climate. This is particularly true when the mT airmass moves toward the North. The mT airmass modifies due to lower sun angles, drier land below, and cooler land below. The surface CHART #1 show a mT airmass across the Eastern US with the classic mT airmass in the Southeast US and a modified mT airmass across New England. (link to this chart is coming soon)\n\nMaritime Polar\n\nThe source region for mP air is over cold ocean currents or high latitude ocean waters. This air does not have the moisture content as mT air. Since mP air is always near saturation, orographic lifting of the air mass can produce widespread rain or snow. This air mass is notorious for producing fog, drizzle, cloudy weather and long lasting light to moderate rain. The temperature of mP air ranges from just above freezing to below 70 ° F. mP air is modified as it moves over elevated terrain. On the windward side of mountain ranges, mP air can produce an abundance of rain and snow. Once on the lee side of mountains, the mP airmass modifies into a continental airmass. These air masses produce cold fronts but the air is not as cold as polar or arctic fronts. They are often termed "Pacific fronts" or "back-door cold fronts". Maritime Polar air occurs frequently in the Pacific Northwest and to a lesser degree New England and can be seen on CHART #1.\n\nContinental Polar\n\nThis airmass has low dewpoints, cold temperatures and a high degree of stability. The denseness of cP air creates surface high pressure and a trough aloft, especially when cP air moves into lower latitudes. Precipitation in association with cP air is usually light due to the dryness and low moisture capacity of the air. Precipitation is most common on the "edges" of cP air, especially where it intersects and displaces mT air. Precipitation within a cP air mass is elevated and dynamically induced. These dynamical uplift mechanisms include jet streaks, isentropic lifting and positive differential vorticity advection. Cold surface temperatures and a dry boundary layer inhibit thermodynamic convection.\ncP air modifies rapidly as it moves to the South. The dewpoints remain low but the temperature of this airmass increases when moving South due to the following: warmer soil temperature, a shallower airmass, higher sun angles and a lack of surface snow cover. cP air will modify less rapidly if soil temperature are abnormally low to the south (especially if surface snow cover exists). On some occasions the subtropical jet will "overrun" the shallow cP air. If this occurs, the cP air will modify less rapidly due to a much reduced solar heating. Once cP air modifies significantly it no longer makes sense to la

I'm in Texas too..........so ONE THING that's on your mind is just how friggin HOT IT IS.............lol!!!\n\n(and they are calling "this" a cool front.............)

Well you wouldn't like it any better in Texas, it is so dang hot in summer and hard to cool off...

The lowest temperature measured in Texas was -23 degrees, recorded on February 8, 1933 at Seminole. Cold enough that you can take boiling water and it will freeze if you threw it up in the air. Talk about cold!
