Hot and steamy with limited rain chances this weekend

Enjoy the sunshine because rain is on the way!

Sunday’s forecast:

At its peak, the Sun blazes nearly overhead, giving Houston a tropical vibe, so get ready for a sizzling, sun-soaked Sunday! It’s going to be hot, muggy, and mostly sunny this weekend, and we have nowhere near record-breaking temperatures but our “feels-like” temperatures climb over 100 through the afternoon.

Today we have a 20% chance of rain, followed by increasing shower and thunderstorms chances tomorrow.

Feels like temperatures reach the triple digits Sunday

More rain is headed our way:

The reason rain chances increase is due to high pressure moving east away from Texas. Without the high pressure, there will be no sinking air to dry out the atmosphere. Instead, a return of moisture from the Gulf moves in.

High pressure moves east next week

The dry air will be focused across the eastern half of the country, leading to record-breaking temperatures in the northeast.

Midwest to the Northeast will see record challenging temperatures as High Pressure moves in next week.

Tracking the tropics:

The National Hurricane Center is not watching any regions in the Atlantic Basin for tropical development over the next seven days. Saharan dust continues to dominate the open waters, helping us stay hurricane-free.

No development is expected in the next seven days. (Copyright 2024 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)
