Wednesday’s Forecast:

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 are possible. We put a 30% chance.

Highs on Wednesday will be in the mid-90s. (Copyright 2024 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)

Tracking Rain Chances:

Late in the week, a cold front will push through the Lone Star state, increasing rain chances starting Thursday and continuing into Saturday.

Rain chances will go up quickly by Thursday and likely stay elevated because a front will stall out across the region.

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.

By Friday we will have a low flood risk through the area. The front will stall across the area which will bring rain chances on the high side into the weekend.

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.

10-day Forecast:

Rain chances will ramp up late week as a front stalls to our north. The increase in rain means lower than normal temperatures!
