Friday morning provided a brief break from the widespread fog, but it will return for Saturday morning due to a surge of moisture that is ahead of a cold front expected to move in midday Saturday.
2. Showers and tumbling temperatures
The cold front will move in during the day Saturday bringing in a round of showers. Only a half-inch of rain is expected, making the temperature drop behind the front the big story. Temperatures in Houston will be mild in the low 70s ahead of the front and will drop to the 50s by the afternoon.
3. Houston Marathon
Sunday is the day! For runners, conditions will be good. The day will start dry and cool with temperatures in the mid-40s Sunday morning. However, spectators should dress in layers as it will feel chilly standing on the sidelines cheering on the runners. Winds will be coming in from the northeast around 10 mph.
