I know three are bad based on figures of Humidity and Tempreture But sure there is one where summer is little more tolerable , there is little more breeze
Miami. The coastal influence means the breezes are more frequent and the weather does not get as hot. Plus, you can swim in the ocean! Dallas gets more heat because it is inland, and Houston is hotter because of all the smog and less ocean influence.
Houston(on the bay, and towards Galveston) and Miami tie for this. Both areas have bodies of water where people can swim in, and have ocean resorts. Dallas, though it has less humidity, has hotter temperatures, due to being in a more interior location.
But Texas beaches are gross. Miami definitely wins on that front.
Yeah, can't argue with the fact Miami has better beaches... but Texas beaches aren't gross. They are resorts that attract people from all over the country.
IDK about that. Most people in Texas beaches resorts are from the surrounding areas. It is Hawaii, Southern California, and Florida that get all the tourists from aroind the country, and around the WORLD, for their beaches.
Miami has never had a recorded air temperature above 99 degrees since the city was founded in 1896. Has Dallas or Houston? I think they have.
Miami does have the sea breeze but once you get into the inland suburbs and away from the coast the humidity can become intolerable. The saving grace is that in the summer the Everglades ecosystem kicks in and daily thunder storms move from west to east dousing Miami in torrential rains and cooling off the humidity & temps.

This is not true, many people from around the U.S come to the Texas coast during the Summer. I see many people from other areas in Galveston all the time when I visit. Even seen a few Hawaii plates before.
Also put into account that overall, the weather is more bearable in Houston and Dallas. These two cities get a break from the heat and humidity from mid-October to April. In Miami it's pretty much always humid.
I agree with the consensus here. Miami is not too bad if you're close to the ocean. There was always a summer breeze in my Ft Lauderdale neighborhood (Lighthouse Point), so I found the humidity tolerable. However, the tropical sun was VERY intense.
