America - What is your weather like in August & September (page 3)

Boston can be hot in August, mild and wet in September.

Eastern Mass is very urban with many Historical sites and tourist traps. Cape Cod and the islands aren't quite so urban and very good places to visit.

If you're going to be in Northern Cali, Sept. is Indian Summer. The best time to be in San Francisco.

August and September in Florida very hot, and hurricanes.

Southern California is usually in the 90s or over 100. Probably no rain. It is rare at that time of year. Santa Ana winds at times which makes the air very dry. There can be a good 20 degrees difference between being 25 or 30 miles inland and the coast. Vegas should be stinking hot so there may be a need to drink lots of beer. At least that is how I deal with it. Northern Nevada is a lot cooler that Southern Nevada and San Francisco can be down right cold in the summer so it all depends on where you are at.

South Texas can be hot that time of the year.

Heck... South Texas can be hot most any time of the year.

If you are planning on coming this far south - San Antonio, TX - let us know in advance - my wife and can put you up for a few nights. (I have a feeling that you won't go any further south than Dallas, though.)

I can handle the heat & humidity people - I'm from Africa :)

Jaguarbass: What's this about hurricans - is that hurrican season.....would NOT like to be in one of those.

LouBelle, the Atlantic hurricane season begins on June 1 and lasts until November 30.

The only thing that you have to worry about, is the possibility that there might be a hurricane to disrupt any pre-scheduled air travel.

Sandy Eggo has monsoons in late August and early September. This is humid air from the south that piles up in the mountains and makes spectacular thunder storms. If you go to burning man, it is the end of August in northern Nevada, but a downpour may occur, or a dust storm. It is on a dry lake bed. I went in 1998. Great fun, and you do not have to worry what to wear, especially during the very special bike ride.
