Located approximately 250 miles north of the Gulf of Mexico, Dallas enjoys a humid subtropical climate. The warm season lasts approximately 294 days out of the year, with daytime temperatures in the summer often reaching over 100°F. In the winter, temperatures remain mild around the mid-60s. Any occasional cold fronts are short-lived.

Spring and fall are wonderful seasons to visit Dallas, as temperatures are pleasantly warm. However, visitors should also note that thunderstorms are the most frequent in the spring due to the collision of the warm, humid air of the Gulf Coast and the cooler air from Canada. While these storms can be strong, they come and go quickly, with beautiful sunshine and delightful breezes prevailing most of the time.
