North Richland Hills sees about 98 days a year at 90°F or hotter, and 17 of them reach 100°F. Heat wears a battery out faster than cold does, so a battery that seems fine in spring can quit in August. Get it tested once it is three years old. Heat also works the AC, the cooling fan and the coolant hard, and those jobs pile up in the first hot weeks of the year.

It freezes on about 32 nights a year here. Not many, but the first cold snap is when a weak battery shows itself, so test it in the fall.

The average commute in North Richland Hills is 27 minutes each way, and 73% of workers drive there alone.
