Splendid weather today and Saturday, but Easter looks mostly gray

It’s quite cool across Houston this morning, with low temperatures in the low 40s up north, and upper 40s to 50 degrees along the coast.

TODAY

In the wake of Thursday’s front we’re going to see beautiful conditions today, with highs around 70 degrees and mostly sunny skies. Enjoy!

SATURDAY

Southerly winds will begin to return Gulf of Mexico moisture, setting us up for a warmer day under partly to mostly sunny skies, with highs around 80 degrees. Still, pretty darn nice.

EASTER SUNDAY

The holiday still doesn’t look great, weather-wise, but it could be worse. Sunday looks to be a gray day, starting out muggy. A cool front should reach the area by around noon, but it doesn’t look to be bringing any dynamic weather with it.

With relativity near 100 percent on Sunday morning, expect a muggy start to the Easter holiday. (Weather Bell)

Still, we could see some light rain during the morning hours, with clearing skies during the afternoon hours. The high will be near 80 degrees, with drier and cooler air moving in during the late afternoon and evening.

MONDAY

Monday looks to be a repeat of Friday, with another round of gorgeous weather.

TUESDAY and BEYOND

Sometime on Tuesday we’ll again see the resumption of an onshore flow from the Gulf of Mexico, which will bring the possibility of showers and potentially storms during the second half of next week. We’re not looking at anything extreme, but it’s hard to pinpoint details at this time.
