LLELA Summer Lecture Series: Desert Ecology and its Influence on North Texas Heat
June 28 Sat –10 am to noon
When people think of Texas weather, they often imagine a desert-like environment and are surprised by the humidity and rainfall of North Texas. Despite these differences, the southwestern deserts continue to have a significant impact on the meteorology and climatology of North Texas. Join the City of Lewisville’s Interpretive Park Ranger Addy France to learn about this fascinating aspect of the North Texas environment.
