Cold front season is winding down in North Texas

Certainly! Here’s a rephrased version:

Did you know there’s a cold front season in North Texas? Well, there is, and it’s winding down. This season, typically spanning from September to May, sees the easy movement of cold fronts into Texas, resulting in significant drops in temperature and humidity.

During the transition from spring to summer, the jet stream weakens and shifts northward into the Central and Northern United States. This shift makes it less likely for cooler air masses to reach Texas. Although cold fronts can still occur in the summer, they lack the force and impact of those in fall and winter.

Summer cold fronts in Texas are often light, barely causing a noticeable change in temperature and humidity. It’s joked that a summer cold front means going from 105 to 98 degrees Fahrenheit.

The cold front season typically resumes by mid-September as the jet stream strengthens, allowing for more substantial pushes of cooler air into Texas. As fall progresses, these cold fronts can extend all the way to the Gulf of Mexico, bringing relief from humidity and pleasant temperatures that prompt the first pumpkin spice latte of the season.

But before we can enjoy that, we must endure the intense summer heat. So let’s savor the last few cold fronts of the season, as their presence becomes increasingly scarce.
