HOUSTON – Stormy, warm weather is in the forecast as we head into the weekend. Friday’s highs climb to the mid-80s with mostly cloudy skies. Friday is the last day to early vote. It’s also the last week day where the sunset is at 6:34 PM. On election day Tuesday sunset is near 5:30 PM.

Time Change:
Don’t forget daylight saving time ends this weekend. Most devices will automatically change this for you, but ovens, microwaves, old cars, and wall clocks will need to be set back an hour before bed Saturday. 2AM becomes 1AM Sunday morning, which in theory gives us an extra hour of sleep. I say in theory because for this to occur you need to go to bed at the same time and wake up at the same time Friday and Saturday night. For example, if you go to bed at 10pm and wake up at 7am both nights you’ll get an extra hour of sleep. Since 2am happens twice Sunday you get an extra hour. This is also a good time to change the batteries on your smoke detectors and CO2 alarms.
Big changes for our sunrise and sunsets start Sunday. Early risers typically love this time change because our sunrise is in the 6AM hour starting Sunday. Sunset are an hour earlier near 5:30 PM.
10-day Forecast:
There are two cold fronts coming next week. The first one will move through on Election Day ramping up our rain chances and lowering temperatures a tad. The second cold moves through on Thursday. Next Thursday’s front looks to be the big one that will dramatically drop temperatures. Highs will be in the 70s and lows in the 50s.
