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.

Oscar is now a Tropical Storm that will continue to move northeast across at the Atlantic. Tropical storm watches and warnings are in effect for southeastern Bahamas and a portion of northeastern coast 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:

There are several days we get near 90° this week with highs in the upper-80s and mostly sunny skies. A weak cold front will lower our temperatures by a few degrees for the weekend. Right now it looks like we could see rainfall return at the end of the 10-day, but it’s still very far out. Halloween is now on the 10 day!
