Good morning. Temperatures have typically fallen into the low to mid-40s throughout a lot of Houston this morning, with a couple of colder spots resembling the inside of Montgomery County—higher 30s—and some hotter ones alongside the coast the place lows stay within the low 50s. This would be the coldest morning of the week, however we’ll have yet one more chilly night time earlier than we heat up for the weekend. Subsequent week’s forecast nonetheless appears a bit messy, however my expectation is for one more entrance with some rainfall.
Wednesday
Right now shall be sunny once more, with highs within the higher 60s. Winds shall be out of the north at 5 to 10 mph, earlier than turning extra southerly later at present or tonight. Count on yet one more chilly night time, with lows a few levels hotter than Tuesday night time. So once more, many of the space ought to drop into the 40s away from the coast.
Thursday and Friday
Because the onshore movement will get going, we’ll begin to see a gradual rise in humidity ranges, however Thursday ought to nonetheless see fairly dry air. Search for sunny skies and highs within the low 80s, with average southerly winds. Lows Thursday night time will drop to round 60 levels. Friday shall be hotter, with sunny skies and highs within the mid-80s.
Saturday and Sunday
The weekend appears fairly heat, and it’ll really feel particularly so after the cooler climate previous it. Search for largely sunny skies and highs within the mid- to upper-80s. In a single day lows will typically drop into the higher 60s. Humidity shall be again, it it received’t be full-on summertime humidity. Days shall be pretty breezy, with southerly winds possible gusting to fifteen to twenty mph.
Subsequent week
We’ll be watching a couple of issues subsequent week together with a big trough of low strain within the ambiance transferring throughout the plains together with a chilly entrance, and a hurricane within the Pacific Ocean that might transport atmospheric moisture throughout Mexico and into Texas. Whereas the large image appears clear the small print of the interplay between these climate methods over our space, as of but, will not be.
The underside line is that I believe we are able to count on to begin to see extra clouds by Sunday night time or Monday, and a rise in rain possibilities on Monday or Monday night time. The entrance itself will most likely arrive on Tuesday or Tuesday night time. Alas, how a lot rain we get, and the way a lot colder and drier air strikes in behind the entrance, stays very a lot unsure. My basic expectation could be on the order of half an inch of rain and nights within the 50s, however I don’t really feel overly assured in that. Typically with these sorts of fall-like patterns we see fairly a little bit of rain, however up to now there’s no large sign for that within the fashions. We will see.
