We need rain!
For the first time in a year, Houston, and most of southeast Texas are back in a drought. It’s a moderate drought and conditions will get worse through the next two weeks with not much rain in the forecast. For more on our drought and our upcoming winter click here.
Tracking the Tropics:
Hurricane Oscar is a Category 1 hurricane with max winds of 80 mph. Hurricane warnings are now in effect for southeastern Bahamas and a portion of northeastern coast of Cuba. We’re also tracking the threat of storm surges to a portion of southeastern Bahamas, Great Inagua Island and the north shore of Cuba.
Hurricane season runs through November 30th, but in recorded history SE Texas has never had a storm hit past October 15th. The reason is our cold fronts block storms from moving north. Fronts steer them east. We’ll probably have a few more storms but if they hit the United States it will be along the east coast.
10-day Forecast:
No rain in the forecast and there are also several days we get near 90°.
