As we honor Juneteenth across the Houston area, plan for typical summertime heat and humidity, along with the possibility of pop-up showers. We are forecast to be very seasonal!
Thursday’s Forecast:
- Houston’s High: 92°
- Low: 78°
- Rain Chance: 40%
- Galveston High: 88°, with breezy Gulf humidity
While most of the day will be dry, scattered downpours or a brief thunderstorm could pop up in the afternoon, especially during peak heating. If you’re heading to outdoor events or celebrations, it’s a good idea to pack the umbrella just in case.
Juneteenth Weather History in Houston:
- Hottest: 95° in 1875
- Coldest: 68° in 1961
- Rainiest: 2.99” in 1962
This year, we land right in the middle of that range with warm, muggy air and a high near 92°. Heat and humidity will push the “feels-like” temperatures into the lower 100s by the afternoon, so stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade when you can.
Whether you’re in Freedmen’s Town, Emancipation Park, or making a trip to Galveston, where Juneteenth has deep roots, you’ll want to dress for the heat and keep an eye on the sky.
We’d love to see how you are celebrating! Send us your photos at www.click2houston.com/pins
