Not getting fall.

I live in Texas, where we don't get fall. It's 90 degrees today.

What is fall like, to those of you who get it?

40-60 degrees, which is great, and the return of allergies, which is less great.

Is Texas the only place in the US that doesn't get fall?

Nope.

The southern tip of Florida never averages lower than 60. Most of the rest of the south has a similar experience to Texas.

Really? Most of the south doesn't get fall?

I mean, the entire region isn't at the same temperature, but you can see from the maps that the bands cutting across Texas more or less continue through the rest of the (deep) southern US. Virginia, Kentucky, and the like can't really be included.

Geographical extremes aside, average temperature is largely determined by latitude and air/water currents.

Texas is too big and Fall is too intimidated to stop by.

I moved a little over a year ago to Lincoln. Surprisingly there is quite a climate difference, which I should have expected from moving several hundred miles but still keeps me surprised.

It usually rains here the nine months that aren't summer, but the heat has been sticking around longer than usual. It's reached the 90's several times the last couple weeks.

We have VERY clear-cut seasons here in Northern Mississippi. Fall and spring are my favorites, as they are very beautifully moderate at about 40-65 degrees every day with cloudy weather and nice visual changes. The breeze has a hint of winter bite to it, with the smell of the rain and leaves that coat our hills. It's the only time of year I spend a super super long amount of time outdoors, usually near water, where the sun's warmth is less SCALDING AND MERCILESS as it is in summer and more gentle and nourishing. To sum it up: fall is hella rad.

In other words, it's warm year-round for most of the south.

Fall is cold, bitter, and depressing, except for Halloween.

Fall is wonderful. It's crisp and colorful and there's this nostalgic feeling that something is going to end so you enjoy what you can around bonfires.

The typical fall season doesn't come until November or so where I am. Before that, in September and October, we get something called "'Indian summer". At least, that's the local belief of some people.
