BEST TIME TO VISIT DALLAS, TEXAS

Dallas is a year-round destination, but Summers can be harsh. If you want to avoid heat and humidity, don't go in Summer. Summers tend to be too hot and too humid, with often violent (though brief) thunderstorms, strong winds and heavy rain...

Winter is a rather unforeseeable season. Weather can vary greatly, oscillating easily from the harsh to the very agreeable. Anyway, if your travel in centred mainly in Dallas and in indoor activities, Winter can be a good visiting period. 

Spring and Fall - with usually mild temperatures - are the best times to visit Dallas.


WHEN NOT TO GO TO DALLAS

Avoid Summer, unless you just want to visit indoor sites. Dallas's summers are too hot and too humid.
