What December feels like
Dallas Decembers are wetter than people expect and mostly hover above freezing, so the picture-book snow rarely shows up. Cowboys, the lights in Highland Park, and a lot of indoor plans — keep an umbrella in the car.
Expect about 4 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. The air runs dry — whatever the thermometer says, it wears easy. about 8 nights dip below freezing.
