Situations this morning are quite nice throughout the area, with low temperatures usually within the higher 60s, with barely hotter temperatures alongside the coast. Excessive temperatures ought to heat pretty shortly this morning, as a result of considerably drier air in place. Search for highs to achieve about 90 levels with sunny skies, and rain possibilities close to zero. Winds can be gentle, at 5 to 10 mph, out of the northeast. Lows tonight can be about 70 levels in Houston, with hotter circumstances alongside the coast, and barely cooler inland.
Thursday
This needs to be one other largely sunny day, with highs someplace within the vary of 90 levels. As winds flip extra southeasterly, humidity ranges will begin to come again up.

Beginning on Friday, and lasting by the weekend, moisture ranges will proceed to rise throughout the area. Successfully this implies we’re prone to see sunny mornings, after which the potential for afternoon showers and thunderstorms as the ocean breeze migrates inland, and we see peak daytime heating.
