Thursday’s Forecast:
Expect a mix of sunshine and cloud cover, with temperatures climbing into the upper 80s and lower 90s. Factor in the humidity, and we’ll feel closer to the triple digits.
There is a 20% chance of showers and storms in the afternoon. If you do see a downpour, it can bring a quick inch or so of rain and frequent lightning strikes.
Three-Day Forecast
We are back in a typical June pattern! We’re hot and humid with afternoon highs feeling like 100 degrees. Every day there will be a chance for a quick afternoon downpour, but we aren’t expecting anything widespread like last week.
Tracking The Tropics:
The National Hurricane Center has marked an area in the Bay of Campeche for a 10% chance of development over the next week or so. A broad area of low pressure could form. Still, conditions are not expected to be favorable for significant development as it’ll move inland over eastern Mexico late this weekend, totally squashing any chance of formation.
This means impacts on Texas will be indirect. Instead of a named storm, we’ll likely see increased tropical moisture, which could boost our rain chances starting Sunday and lasting into early next week.
This won’t lead to a washout, but it could mean periods of heavy downpours around the Houston area, including during some of the World Cup festivities this weekend.
There is a risk of flooding on Sunday, which is when Houston hosts its first World Cup game. This does not mean it will be a washout, but it does mean any shower or storm that we see before, during, or after the game can lead to street flooding. Stay weather aware on Sunday!
Your extended forecast:
We are back to a more typical weather pattern, but there is an increasing chance for rainfall into the end of the weekend and into next week. Some of the rain Monday and Tuesday will be heavy and could lead to some areas of minor street flooding.
