Today’s Forecast:
HOUSTON – A ridge of high pressure is bringing Houston hot weather this weekend, with “feels like” temperatures in the triple digits. But rain is coming next week thanks to a front, not only bringing chances for daily showers and thunderstorms but will drop our temps to the upper 80s for a few days.
The heat risk will start to increase into the weekend as well, in fact, this is a good weekend to be mindful of staying extra hydrated for both Saturday and Sunday.
Saharan Dust: A golden glow from Saharan dust will enhance sunrises and sunsets, amplifying reds, oranges, and pinks as sunlight scatters off particles. We’ll see slightly hazy conditions in the morning but clearing out for the most part by afternoon.
Tracking The Tropics
- Tropical Atlantic: No tropical cyclone activity expected in the next 7 days, as there are plenty of plumes of Saharan dust. It will bring a hazy look to our weekend forecast
- Eastern Pacific: A few areas of interest are being tracked for cyclone formation in 7 days near southern Mexico and south of Central America
10 Day Forecast:
After a sizzler of a weekend, we flip the script next week and head back into the storm train. We’ll see daily rain chances starting on Monday with a chance for heavy rain by Wed/Thu.
