Our first real fall cold front expected next week:

Models have been consistent with a front moving into Texas next week but there is still a lot of uncertainty on the details. The front will start to move into Texas Wednesday bringing pre-frontal showers. On Thursday we will have the chance for heavy downpours and storms. Cool air typically has a hard time making it all the way through SE Texas during our first front, but we will be cooler than we have and likely closer to our normal high.
