Today’s Forecast:
Today we started off foggy as the heat and humidity put us close to record-breaking temperatures today again. The record is 85 in 1985 and we hit 84 at 12:30 at Bush Airport today. Tomorrow we’re tracking a high of 84 and if we hit it, we’ll tie the record from 2011.
Tracking the Front:
We’re tracking a weakening cold front that will knock us back into seasonable temperatures next week with a solid chance for rain. The heaviest rain appears to stay across parts of the hill country and west of San Antonio, where there could be some measure of flash flooding.
While parts of central Texas will likely see the bulk of this rain, we will see some scattered storms move in early Friday across the Brazos Valley and look to weaken once they approach most of the Houston metro by Friday afternoon.
Right now, we’re tracking the chance for isolated strong thunderstorms with the possibility of localized heavy rainfall. We have a marginal risk, level 1 out of 5, for excessive rainfall north and northwest of the Houston metro area.
Your extended forecast:
Behind Thursday’s cold front, temperatures will continue to fall back in the 70s. The next time we’re waking up in the 50s looks to be this weekend! There will also be an additional rainmaker next mid-week that could bring in some messy driving conditions if you’re heading out before the holiday.
