For the 2012 Olympic Trials, weather conditions at Hobby Airport were:

I took some pictures during the OT race and posted them here.

My camera isn't very good and the battery ran out, so several of these are from my phone.

I think I would have preferred the Trials Weather for Sunday - ended up pretty humid on Sunday - not so bad in the 40s but not quite ideal either.

Saturday was very nice. The Gulf air was streaming in Sunday; it was already 47 down here on the coast when the race started. But given the warm winter we've had, a dew point below 50 is pretty good.
