The humidity is generally lower than in mid-summer, and there's less chance of extreme heat or cold.

If your visit is more focused on indoor attractions, such as shopping at Jordan Creek Town Center or exploring museums, then the shoulder seasons still provide a comfortable environment without the peak crowds of summer.
