Today s Forecast:
Cheers to Friday! The bad news is that tropical downpours will persist over the weekend, but the good news is that our heat will subside this weekend. Street flooding is a worry since tropical downpours simply result in an abundance of rainwater.
We had a little rain this morning, but the likelihood of further rain increases during the day. View our most recent radar below:
Through Sunday, there should be sporadic downpours throughout southeast Texas. Through Saturday, there will be dry spells interspersed with waves of storms. There is a slight but not insignificant chance of flash floods. The likelihood of rain is still high over the weekend, particularly on Friday night and early Saturday.
Houston’s regular summer trend, with highs in the upper 90s and a mix of sun and humidity, is expected to return by early next week, with Sunday looking drier.
Tracking the tropics, tracking the Gulf:
Over the following two days, there is a 10% possibility that a low pressure system will move across the Gulf Coast. Even though it’s slim, it’s still something. A lot of wind shear has been affecting the system, which may limit development.
Tropical moisture might produce downpours severe enough on Friday to trigger street flooding in sections of southeast Texas, but this system does have a little possibility of developing.
We’ll be closely monitoring it and providing you with updates.
This hurricane season, be sure your family is equipped to handle any situation that may arise.
Your extended forecast:
Next week is expected to have highs in the upper 90s and humid lows in the upper 70s to 80s. We’ll be back in the upper 90s with some serious summer sizzle as soon as the rain stops this weekend.
