Climate Issues

The Climate of Houston is classified as humid subtropical. Houston's warmest month (on average) is July at 85 °F (29 °C), and the coldest month being January at 54 °F (12 °C). The average yearly precipitation level is 54 inches (1,400 mm). Houston has occasional severe weather, mostly in the form of flooding. Spring super cell thunderstorms sometimes bring tornadoes to the area. Houston may sometime experience tropical cyclones during the hurricane season, which can bring significant damage to the city. The last to hit was Hurricane Ike in Houston's air is polluted by ozone and other chemicals that pose definite health risks. February 3, 2009
