Monday’s Forecast:

If you’re hosting a Labor Day Weekend pool party or BBQ, there’s no need to cancel, but I would pay attention to the radar and head indoors for 30 minutes if you hear thunder. The best chance for showers and storms focus south of I-10 but there is still a chance for an isolated to spotty shower north of I-10. Some areas along the coast could see heavy rain which could lead to ponding and even flooding. It is on the low side, but it is still there!

Showers and storms best chance for scattered to numerous coverage are mainly south of I-10.
Scattered to numerous showers possible along the coast.
Spotty showers Monday Evening

Tracking The Tropics:

The National Hurricane Center is now monitoring the low-pressure system in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico for tropical development, but don’t sound the alarm. This is the same low we have been tracking bringing the spotty to scattered showers and storms.

The low will move west this week across the Gulf. While rain chances increase the chance for this to form into a depression or tropical storm is low, at last check there is a 10% chance in the next two days and only a 20% in the next seven days.

Gulf of Mexico has a low chance to a upper level low turn into a surface low over the next 7 days.

There’s also a few waves out in the Atlantic. One is approaching the Caribbean sea this week and has a 40% during the next seven days.

The Atlantic Basin also has a tropical wave that could develop as it moves into the Caribbean.

Behind that wave is the newest wave that is just off the coast of Africa.

Another area of concern is a wave just off the coast of Africa.

10-day Forecast:

We have daily chances for showers and storms through the late week. This is not a total washout, but instead on-and-off showers and storms. A cold front will try to clear Texas late week, if it is successful expect cooler nights.

September kicking off with slightly below average temperatures because of daily waves of rain.

If you’re seeking out cooler weather, we do expect a gradual cooling in the month of September. Our average high drops to 88° by the end of the month. Our average low drops to 67° - thank goodness!

The hottest we've ever been in September was 109° and the coolest was 45°! That's a 64° range! (Copyright 2024 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)

Even though we expect our temperatures to cool seasonally, the Climate Prediction Center expects most of the United States to be above average through the month. As a reminder our latest 100° day was September 27th after Hurricane Rita.

Nearly the entire United States is expected to be above normal during the month of September. (Copyright 2024 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)
