Climate

Hebbronville has a borderline humid subtropical climate (Köppen climate classification Cfa)/hot semi-arid climate (Köppen BSh). Summers are very hot and humid: 152 afternoons each year top 90 °F or 32.2 °C, with 27.6 afternoons reaching 100 °F or 37.8 °C and during the summer of 2009 eleven afternoons topped 110 °F or 43.3 °C. During July and August combined, all but three mornings stay above 68 °F or 20 °C and seven mornings per year stay above 77 °F or 25 °C, with as many as forty mornings staying over this temperature during 1998. The hottest temperature on record has been 118 °F (47.8 °C) on July 9, 2009, and the hottest minimum 88 °F (31.1 °C) on September 30, 2009, followed by 87 °F (30.6 °C) the following day.

During the summer, rain is not common, but when a Gulf of Mexico hurricane moves inland it can be very heavy. From September 11 to 13, 1971, a total of 14.10 inches (358.1 mm) fell over three days from such a system, 14.73 inches (374.1 mm) in four days from September 20 to 23 of 1967, and 6.00 inches (152.4 mm) fell on August 27 and 28, 1909. In contrast, no measurable precipitation fell in Hebbronville from June 10 to September 7 of 1921.

Temperatures decline slowly during the “fall” season, remaining hot through until the end of October, by which time most danger of flooding from a remnant hurricane has passed. The winter months are warm and usually dry, although occasionally an easterly flow will produce substantial rainfall. Three substantial storms in February and March 1923 produced a total of 11.06 inches (280.9 mm), and the ten-day period from December 13 to 22 of 1991 saw 7.13 inches or 181.1 millimetres of rainfall; however, only 1.71 inches or 43.4 millimetres fell between October 1970 and the end of March 1971. Frosts do occasionally occur during the winter – 9.9 mornings fall to or below freezing during an average winter – but measurable snow has fallen in Hebbronville only three times in 112 years – on March 10, 1932, on January 20, 1940 during South Texas’ coolest month on record, and on Christmas Day of 2004 when 5 inches or 0.13 metres fell in a famous “White Christmas”.

Since 1905 the wettest calendar year has been 1995 with 42.75 inches (1,085.8 mm) and the driest 1996 with 11.52 inches (292.6 mm), whilst September 1967 has proved the wettest month with 19.35 inches (491.5 mm). The wettest single day has been September 12, 1971 with 9.40 inches (238.8 mm).
