Okay so I'm going to the April 7-8 Owl Days and I was wondering what the weather is like in Houston. I live in CT so right now the temperature's about 50 degrees and we're still wearing long-sleeve shirts and pants. Right now is it like summer in Houston? What clothes should I wear/pack? (sorry if this is a stupid question)

nah it's gonna be in the low 80s, so not hot at all. shorts and t-shirts are good. and no, it's not summer...summer is 90s and 100s. it'll be cloudy though.

Weather is unpredictable, so bring long pants and waterproof windbreaker.

Also consider bringing a sweater or something to wear indoors because most buildings are severely over-ACed.

Bring an airmattress if you have room; some of the rooms do not have a couch for you to crash on.....

arent you supposed to bring a sleeping bag?

which leads me to my next questions: would it be too hot for a sleeping bag there?
