Getting your weather updates started for Saturday!

Honoring a true Texas severe weather hero, U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Scott Ruskan, grand marshal of the downtown rodeo parade that starts at 10 a.m. As we bring you the latest developments overnight while you were sleeping on the U.S., Israel, and Iran with NBC News Special Report all morning ✅Click the link in my bio to watch live at 9a.m. Weather & Traffic Together: The Downtown Rodeo Parade. It’s a tradition that started in 1938, and while the official start date for the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is March 2, today is all about the Downtown Rodeo Parade as we saddle up for the Rodeo this weekend. The grand marshal of the 2026 Downtown Parade is U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer Scott Ruskan, a rescue swimmer who saved 165 children during the historic July 4th flash floods in the Texas Hill Country. And I also thought this was interesting: According to an article in CNN, he left his career as an accountant to enlist in the Coast Guard and has executed multiple high-risk rescues under extreme conditions. ⚠️Weather & Traffic Together: We’re tracking a dense fog advisory until 9 a.m. Then we’ll be tracking sunshine with slightly breezy conditions of 15+ mph this afternoon. Today’s High: 82 Sunday Morning Low:62 Normal High: 70 Normal Low: 51 Record High: 90 in 1940 Record Low: 28 in 2002 ⚠️Downtown Rodeo Parade Traffic: The parade route starts at Bagby and Walker Streets at 10 a.m. Expect delays on Travis Street, Bell Street, Louisiana Street, and Lamar Street.

We’re in for a warm and pretty dry forecast the next 3 days before we start to track the chance for rain again. Details at 9. Brittany #houston #htown #rodeo #rodeohouston
