Texas is predicted to go from 60 dangerous heat days per year to 115 heat days per year by 2050. I doubt that's a good thing. And 5 years isn't enough to establish what the trend is, a countercyclical trend for 5 year can happen by random or via any of the multidecadal climate cycles.

Where’s your source for this?

There is no way to predict that. We can't even predict how many there will be this year or the next 5 years, let alone decades from now.

This is the difference between climate and weather. You can very easily predict that there will be on average x amount of days over, say, 100 deg. Predicting which days, however, is not really possible.
