Saharan Dust:

Dust coming off the continent of Africa is making its way to the United States. It is impacting air quality and giving us a milky gray sky. The dust concentrations are highest today and tomorrow.

Our air quality is unhealthy for sensitive groups for the rest of the week. (Copyright 2022 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)

Tracking the Tropics:

There is a 20% chance we could see a tropical system develop over the next five days in the southwest Caribbean Sea. The NHC has indicated a 10% chance of development in the next 48 hours and a 20% chance of development over the next 5 days. It will not be a threat to SE Texas. Make sure you’re prepared for the rest of the season by getting our Hurricane Tracker App.

10-day Forecast:

An afternoon shower or brief thunderstorm is possible Thursday through early next week. Most days we’ll be dry but with the high pressure not dominating our weather pattern anymore, a little rain is now possible.

Temperatures will be sizzling hot over the next ten days. (Copyright 2022 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)
