Monday’s Forecast:
Temperatures again Sunday will be HOT with highs climbing to the lower-100s again this afternoon. With the humidity we will feel up to 114° so make sure you drink plenty of water and limit time outdoors. Heat alerts are expected through the weekend and likely extending into the following week.
Extreme Heat & 100 degree days:
The intense heat is not going anywhere. Heat advisories and Excessive Heat Warnings will be extended into some of next week. We average 3–100-degree days a year. We haven’t had rain in Houston since July 6th, more than four weeks ago.
There is a weak cold front that will move across the area on Tuesday, but rain chances will generally stay closer to the coast by late afternoon into the evening. That will be our best chance of rain for the entire week.
10-Day Forecast:
The drought has expanded in SE Texas. Our area is now under moderate-to-extreme drought. This means we will need to water our plants a bit extra due to dry soils. This drought will continue to worsen. The unrelenting heat will stay with us through the weekend with our next potential for rain moving in next Wednesday.
Tracking the Tropics:
The Atlantic basin is quiet for now but we are watching a tropical wave coming off of Africa that has a very low chance of development.
That is not the case for the Pacific where Tropical Storm Fernanda has formed and is forecast to become a hurricane in the next 24 hours. It is moving away from the coast of Mexico. For up-to-the-minute alerts for the rest of our hurricane season, download our KPRC Hurricane Tracker 2 App.
