Grab the poncho or umbrella on Sunday. Scattered showers and a few isolated thunderstorms will fire off throughout the day. Daytime temperatures will stay above average in the upper 70s to low 80s.
A Series of Cold Fronts :
A cold front will push through SE Texas on Monday, bringing a band of rain with embedded storms. This front will help knock down humidity, but temperatures will remain above average early week.
Get the pots ready because it’s soup weather! Another cold front arrives Tuesday into early Wednesday, bringing a batch of cooler air. While our latest modeling has adjusted to put the coldest air a little further east of Texas, we’ll still be able to grab onto a good chunk of it. That will help to keep temps for most of next week a little more fall-like, generally mornings in the 40s and highs in the mid-60s.

Tropical Storm Sara continues to drench parts of Central America with life-threatening flash flooding as she works her way across parts of the Yucatan Peninsula this weekend. If you have travel plans to Cozumel or even Cancun, it won’t be a very sunny weekend.
