Temperatures across SE Texas will hit the low to mid 90s, but with the humidity, it will “feel like” 105 in some spots . We are NOT under a heat advisory, however, please still be safe and drink plenty of water. Showers and storms will likely hug the coast and stay south of I-10. We only put 20% for showers and storms.

Although it is a cold front, consider the temperature difference minimal but noticeable- instead of being in the 90s, we’ll drop to the upper 80s. to low 90s.

An increase in shower and storm chances Thursday into the weekend.

By Friday we will have a low flood risk through the area. Plan for extra time on the roads.

Tracking the tropics:

There is no tropical activity in the Gulf, Caribbean or Atlantic Ocean. The Saharan dust has been very heavy across much of the tropical Atlantic and that is keeping things very quiet.

Another factor in keeping the tropics quiet is huge plums of Saharan dust that are helping to snuff out any development from tropical waves at this point.
