Today’s Forecast:
Happy Saturday! It’s prime time for pumpkin patch adventures and sipping on PSLs, with chilly lows dipping into the 60s.
As you dig out your UGGs and cozy fall scarves, here’s what’s on our radar:
An air quality alert is active today for Houston, Galveston, and Brazoria, with heightened fire danger lasting through tonight. Skip those bonfires, especially near the I-45 corridor, where fire risks are elevated.
We’re starting the morning in the 50s and 60s with a seasonable high in the 80s with lower humidity. Today will feel like fall!
Fire Danger Warning:
Dry, warm weather boosts fire risk through tonight. Even with that fall crispness, steer clear of bonfires.
- Avoid spark-causing activities, as fires can flare up fast.
- Never leave a fire burning unattended or without purpose.
- Secure tow chains to prevent dragging and sparking.
- Don’t drive or park over tall grass.
- Avoid tossing lit cigarettes onto the ground.
Sunday’s Forecast:
Sunday’s another great day. We’ll wake up in the 60s and warm into the upper-80s. There will be a bit more cloud cover Sunday afternoon compared to Saturday, but still expect it to be very sunny.
Tracking the tropics:

Your extended forecast:
You’ll be waking up in the 60s with highs in the mid-80s this weekend, so enjoy it while it lasts because by next week, our lows will pop back up in the 70s with highs above average in the 90s.
