Today’s Forecast:
The fog is being held in check Tuesday morning as winds are a little breezier than usual, however, it will still be a very warm afternoon with highs in the upper 70s to near 80.
Keeping you safe on our roadways: We’re tracking fog the next couple of days.
Houston’s fog season runs strong from November through March, so your weather team is watching dew points closely. The closer the dew point gets to the actual air temperature, the higher the risk for thick fog to develop quickly.
Warm, spring-like afternoons continue:
If you’re looking forward to some spring-like weather, this is your week. Daytime temperatures are forecast to reach the upper-70s to 80 degrees making it incredibly warm for this time of year. Even though each day starts off cool, mostly in the 60s, the numbers jump quickly in the afternoon. This run of warm air is thanks to southerly winds bringing humidity straight up from the Gulf, so it’ll feel quite a bit more humid through the week as well.
Rain moves in Tuesday night and Wednesday morning:
The first chance for showers could arrive late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. The bulk of the rain is expected to fall Wednesday morning in Houston, with northern areas seeing some wet weather as early as Tuesday evening. However, this round of rain doesn’t look like it’s anything more than just a light rain. Projected rainfall totals are low, mostly under a quarter inch, and as little as a trace for some coastal locations.
Your Extended Forecast:
Looking ahead, a second system moves into the area on Saturday, with the potential to bring stronger thunderstorms.
While it’s too early for details, this one looks stronger. You’ll also notice there is no cold weather in this 10-day forecast. The Presidents Day holiday is dry and mild.
