Wednesday’s Forecast:

Highs will drop to the 70s on Wednesday and Thursday. Humidity will be low so it will be sunny and feel Fall-fantastic. Houston will be in the upper-40s Thursday morning. This is the coolest we’ve been in 192 days (April 4th was our last 40 degree day).

Tracking the Tropics:

There are two systems we are watching in the tropics. Neither is a threat to Texas. The region in yellow will bring rain to Central America but will be blocked from coming here by our front. The region in orange could impact Puerto Rico, but then would curve north into the Atlantic (nowhere near the Gulf Coast).

Tropical Outlook (Copyright 2024 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)

Tropical season runs through November, but here in SE Texas we do not see tropical systems after our first fronts arrive. As the cold fronts get stronger, most tropical systems that form get blocked from entering the Gulf of Mexico and can have an impact on Mexico or the East Coast.

10-day Forecast:

Our big fall front arrives Tuesday night! This will bring us from highs in the 90s to highs in the 70s. The weekend looks autumn awesome.
