Something that is highly underappreciated about Lubbock, has to be the weather here. There are so many other great things about this city that tend to get the spotlight, like our biodiversity, low crime rates, and great drivers. 

So, why is it that our beautiful weather goes so unnoticed?

I don’t know about you, but I love constantly getting dirt in my eyes, mouth, and shoes. I also adore how it can go from 40 to 90 degrees in just a few hours. But the best thing, the one I’m looking forward to the most for the rest of this spring, are our storms.  

There is just something so special about being under a tornado watch for days on end, having your backyard turned into a private pond, and getting a new textured finish beat into your car when you get stuck in the hail. I can’t imagine anything more magical.  

The only thing that might beat these spring storms are the winter freezes, the scorching hot summers, or the blinding haboobs. 

You might think consistent, comfortable, and non-hazardous weather is great until you experience that chaos that is Lubbock’s weather for yourself. You’ll never want to go back to the predictable lifestyle of trusting your daily forecast or weekly weather reports. 

An amazing example of Lubbock’s stunning weather happened just a couple of weeks ago and was captured on video for your convenience. Take a look for yourself and see why there is no better place to live than the beautiful Hub City.
