I know you have your share of spring and summer thunderstorms and the occasional tornado. Overall, what are the seasons like in the Hill Country, especially the winters? There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | ||

You wouldn't like it. Better stay where you are. The Hill Country isn't known for tornados, floods yeah, tornados, no. Boring, boring, boring. Better stay where you are.......but you can come to visit. | |||

Reminds me of an Oregon governor who famously invited Californians to "please visit Oregon but for heaven's sake don't stay." There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

Bill,we do have an occasional tornado but not like north Texas. We get our heavy rains in May,usually around Memorial Day.Other than that usually dry but humid,today we hit 100 deg.This last winter we did not have one,great for the peach crop but gonna be hell on more bugs. I agree with Kensco in general but you are an exception.There are way too many people moving in here,but you can't hardly blame them as this is as close to Paradise as you can get.With my 3 sons I felt that they should see everywhere else after having grown up here to get perspective.They all live here,directly over the center of the earth. Never mistake motion for action. | |||

Bill: Go to Weather Underground or do a search on Llano, Texas Weather History. Llano is a beautiful little town that is about as Hill Country as it gets. Or pick the town closest to the area you are interested in. And do the search. You will get detailed data for any day of the year.

Over most of Texas, it is a case of "If You Don't Like The Weather, Give It An Hour Or Two". Last Friday, June 23rd. I was about 40 miles south of Olney outside of a small community named Murray to check on some cattle my boss has on a grazing lease down there. I was there at about 3 p.m. and the pick up I was in has one of those thermometers on the rear view mirror. At the gate going into the place, it read 104. At one point while in the pasture, which is really heavily brushed, the thermometer read 110. It was 106 by the time I got back out the front gate. This was all up in north Texas. Even the rocks don't last forever. | |||

We live a bit outside of Boerne and enjoy most of the weather. That said, as I type, we are at our place in far north Idaho for the summer... | |||

It just ocurred to me that if you move to New Mexico, then you're going to have a helluva hard time finding some good Q. Think about it...... xxxxxxxxxx When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere. NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR. I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process. | |||

Yes but the quality of Mexican food will be increased 1000 fold. I like the Hill Country, especially the bits that are not near San Antonio, Waco and Austin. I bet Kerrville is an absolute madhouse with tourist during the long weekends. I did 6 months in 2014 in San Marcos, it's just a through fare for the big cities and will be part of it some day. If it was me, I'd live out on the West end of the Hill Country. | |||

Not really, there's a reason it is called "Tex-Mex". we invented it.  Although I will admit the NM versions of Mexican food are good eating.xxxxxxxxxx When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members.

No Sir! Some people in Texas use cilantro in their Mexican food. In all but Santa Fe this is a reason for hanging someone. Green chiles and blue corn make for a superior product. | |||

400 years of bad Mexican food in Texas and California. Gotta get your chile fix brother! It is the only way to true salvation. Big Jim is my personal favorite breed of Hatch chile. | |||

You forgot to mention Mexico! You can thank Saeed's ancestors for the use of cilantro in Mexican cooking.
Besides that you probably need to eat more of it......

BWW: I take it that you don't like cilantro. I don't think salsa without cilantro in it tastes like salsa. No cilantro, yuck. xxxxxxxxxx When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us?

Yes Sir, Not sure if allergic or what, but it taste like soap. Rasberries though, I'd pretty much gut someone to get good ones. | |||

One has to have cilantro to make salsa. I grow all my own vegys + can my own salsa. I also USED to enter the Austin Chronicle Hot Sauce cook off.After getting second place 5 years in a row to a Canadian who used canned goods against my organic everything in my salsa,I blew a gasket. Fuck em was my new mantra.BTW,I still make a batch every year in the fall;putting up the tomatoes in the freezer until "cannin time".For those of you who have no knowledge of this it is the time of year when we all put up goods for the year.Times have changed for most but I am still old school.work my own garden + can my own.

I usually grow some cilantro in the garden. Just brushing up against it makes me drool for a burrito. It is key to decent guacamole, too. There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||

We had five months over 100 in the Mojave Desert of California. And 3 of those had temps over 105. I don't think Texas is as hot as California or Florida. But at least in California you get a break. The Mojave and Sonoran deserts are the hottest place in America. Give me the South West and no humidity even if it is hot enough to bust a thermometer. To me Florida is the most miserable, as October should be nice and it is generally just 88 with 100% humidity. I thought coastal Texas had the same shit Florida weather though just for not as long. | |||
