Thursday’s Forecast:
HOUSTON – Warm, muggy and windy will be the story again on Thursday. Gust as high as 35 mph. Temperatures in the Houston area will hit the upper 80s and maybe at 90.
Current radar conditions:
Friday’s Storm Chance:
A chance for showers and storms Friday. This is far from a wash out but there could be a few strong to severe thunderstorms north of Houston in Huntsville, Navasota, Brenham, College Station, Montgomery and Livingston.
You might pick up a sprinkle after 10 am, with storms likely firing off in after 2 PM.
Weekend Storm Threat:
A curious setup later this week will have most of SE Texas wedged between a strong area of high pressure to our southeast and a strong upper-level low-pressure cell in Arizona.
For the next few days, that means windy conditions and a steady stream of Gulf moisture, leading to near-record heat and a very sticky afternoon each day. A series of cold fronts will then head across Texas, eventually bringing shower and thunderstorm chances to Houston by Saturday.
Some storms could be on the strong side by Saturday evening. While the threat for flooding is low, there is still a chance to see some isolated storms that could produce some flooded spots.
10 Day Forecast:
We started the week on a dry note—in terms of rain. Humidity will keep itself around and temperatures still reach the 80s as we watch for our next system to move in the back half of the work week.
