Good morning. After Monday’s widespread showers, Houston will now see a chronic stretch of colder than regular climate, with excessive temperatures not climbing out of the 50s every day till subsequent Monday or Tuesday. It’s unlikely that the metro space will expertise a freeze this week, however that isn’t out of the query for a lot inland areas. Lastly, we’re persevering with to observe the potential of a warm-up subsequent week, and the potential for rainfall simply earlier than, or on Thanksgiving.
Tuesday
With a good strain gradient throughout the area within the wake of Monday’s chilly entrance, we’ll proceed to see brisk northerly winds for a lot of the day. These winds, and a few lingering clouds, will make our “excessive” temperatures within the mid-50s right now really feel reasonably chilly certainly. If you happen to’re questioning about rain probabilities, they’re largely nil till this weekend. After gusting to about 25 mph right now, winds ought to die down some this night, with lows dropping to round 40 levels in a lot of Houston. Circumstances will probably be colder nonetheless north and west of the city space.
Wednesday
Wednesday ought to deliver extra of the identical partly to largely cloudy skies, and highs within the mid-50s. Northerly winds will nonetheless be current, however extra on the order of sustained at 10 mph, and gusts to fifteen mph or so. Anticipate one other chilly evening within the low-40s in Houston.
Thursday
An upper-level system works its means towards our space on Thursday, so we are able to anticipate extra clouds to assist hold our highs within the mid-50s. There’s a slight probability of sunshine rain with this climate system, however largely we’ll in all probability simply see grey skies. After the upper-level low strikes by way of we should always see some briefly clearing skies on Thursday evening into Friday morning, and it will in all probability give us our coldest evening of the week.

Saturday and Sunday
The weekend forecast continues to be sort of a muddle, at the very least Saturday. There’s the potential for low strain within the Gulf of Mexico to deliver a wholesome probability of rain into the Houston area on Saturday, however there’s not a complete lot of consensus in the place the fashions in the end deliver it. For now, I’d say the Houston area has a one-in-three probability of rain, with maybe barely larger odds alongside the coast. Othewise anticipate largely cloudy skies and highs within the 50s on Saturday. Sunday ought to see clearer skies, with low- to non-existent rain probabilities, and highs within the mid- to upper-50s.
Subsequent week

It’s value noting that there’s a pretty sturdy sign within the international fashions for shot of rainfall within the Wednesday or Thursday interval of subsequent week forward of stated entrance. So I might be ready for the potential of some rain, in some unspecified time in the future, on Thanksgiving. Whether or not this in the end involves go 9 days from now could be a giant IF.
