Tracking rain today in Houston with a small chance for some afternoon hail

Today’s forecast:

Overcast for the rest of our day and we’re tracking some sprinkles and light showers moving in from the west. Some of the showers won’t make it to the ground, just adding to the cloud cover. By later this evening, a few isolated thunderstorms are possible, mainly across out western counties. Because the air is very chilly just above the surface, we could see some small hail if any thunderstorms can get cranking.

Astros Home Opener Thursday:

We’ll wake up tomorrow with clear skies, cold temperatures, and light winds. Thursday afternoon is near perfect with highs in the mid-70s. Check out this home opener for the Astros.

Warm & humid Easter weekend:

The high pressure that brings clear skies tomorrow moves to our east this weekend. That will lead to a southerly flow bringing warmth and humidity.

10-day forecast:

Our next chance of getting more than a shower is Tuesday of next week. It’s good that front is moving in because we get close to 90° Monday.
