Good morning. Temperatures have typically fallen into the low to mid-40s throughout a lot of Houston this morning, with a number of colder spots similar to 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 another chilly evening earlier than we heat up for the weekend. Subsequent week’s forecast nonetheless seems to be a bit messy, however my expectation is for one more entrance with some rainfall.
Wednesday
Immediately can be sunny once more, with highs within the higher 60s. Winds can be out of the north at 5 to 10 mph, earlier than turning extra southerly later right now or tonight. Count on yet another chilly evening, with lows a few levels hotter than Tuesday evening. 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 reasonable southerly winds. Lows Thursday evening will drop to round 60 levels. Friday can be hotter, with sunny skies and highs within the mid-80s.
Saturday and Sunday
The weekend seems to be fairly heat, and it’ll really feel particularly so after the cooler climate previous it. Search for principally sunny skies and highs within the mid- to upper-80s. In a single day lows will typically drop into the higher 60s. Humidity can be again, it it received’t be full-on summertime humidity. Days can be pretty breezy, with southerly winds possible gusting to fifteen to twenty mph.
Subsequent week
We’ll be watching a number of issues subsequent week together with a big trough of low stress within the environment transferring throughout the plains together with a chilly entrance, and a hurricane within the Pacific Ocean that would transport atmospheric moisture throughout Mexico and into Texas. Whereas the massive image appears clear the main points of the interplay between these climate techniques over our space, as of but, aren’t.
The underside line is that I believe we will anticipate to begin to see extra clouds by Sunday evening or Monday, and a rise in rain probabilities on Monday or Monday evening. The entrance itself will most likely arrive on Tuesday or Tuesday evening. 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 can 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. Generally with these sorts of fall-like patterns we see fairly a little bit of rain, however up to now there’s no huge sign for that within the fashions. We will see.
