Saturday’s forecast:
Houston is stepping into the weekend with the perfect setup for those Mardi Gras plans, outdoor gatherings, or catching the big game with friends. Temperatures will swing back into the 70s with dry weather hanging on through Monday.
Saturday morning will start off brisk at 48 degrees, but the city will quickly warm to a cool 60 degrees by 9 a.m. and you can expect the afternoon to reach around 74 degrees. Sunshine will dominate the skies and humidity should stay on the lower side, making it feel just right for outdoor fun.
Sunday’s Forecast:
Sunday’s forecast brings more good news for anyone getting together for Super Bowl Sunday. Temperatures will hit the mid-70s with a bit of a breeze shifting from the south and southeast. Humidity may start to creep up a touch later in the day, but there’s no threat of rain to spoil those get-togethers.
Tracking rain and storms Tuesday:
After the streak of sun and mild air, things are expected to turn much wetter starting Tuesday. An upper-level low moves in, with rain and possible lightning developing over the area. Showers are forecast to begin in the early afternoon, with the potential for some heavier downpours or even thunderstorms, especially north of Houston.
Rain could linger into Wednesday morning. Keep checking back as Tuesday approaches for the latest details and updated rainfall amounts.
Your Extended Forecast:
While the main focus is on a gorgeous weekend and those Tuesday storms, the extended forecast holds more activity. Temperatures are forecast to near 80 degrees mid-next week before another system possibly moves in by Friday and could linger into Valentine’s Day. Exact impacts are uncertain, but more rain chances could be on the horizon. President’s Day is also on the 10-day forecast, so stay tuned for updates as the week progresses.
