Monday’s Forecast:
HOUSTON – Monday afternoon will be sunny to partly cloudy, with highs above average in the low to mid 70s. This is just the start of a warming trend.
Holiday Week Forecast:
We are tracking a cold front that will bring in a chance for some showers and thunderstorms for Christmas Eve afternoon/evening.
Some of those storms could be strong or severe, bringing the chance for small hail and gusty winds.
While the front doesn’t look too menacing, it does appear to be arriving in time for ole Kris Kringle to fly presents across most of greater Houston. Current timing has us stormy through the overnight hours. This shouldn’t be a problem at all with Rudolph on Santa’s team - they’ve traveled through much worse.
The rain and storms should move out before most of (hopefully) the kiddos get up Christmas morning to see what Santa has left them!
If this is the case, Christmas should shape up to be wonderful! We’ll have lower humidity behind the front and highs in the lower-70s. It will be mild and merry!
Over the next 5 days, the heaviest rain will likely stay north of SE Texas.
10-day Forecast:
We will warm up this week which means there’s a 0% chance of seeing a white Christmas. Our temperatures look to stay above average as we approach the end of 2024.
We’re still forecast to be below our warmest Christmas. Our warmest Christmas was 83° in 2015.
