Texas sees health impacts from winter, with dry air and indoor gatherings fueling colds.

Texas faces health impacts due to winter temperature swings, though these aren't the direct cause of common cold symptoms like sneezing or coughing. The real culprits are changes in atmospheric pressure and dry indoor air from heaters, which can irritate nasal passages. Using a humidifier can help. Cold weather also means more indoor time, increasing germ spread. Good hygiene and staying home when sick are recommended to prevent illness.
