Alright, I’ve been covering Eric most of this week, and given the stability in the forecast, it’s been a little challenging to discuss much, which has actually kept the posts pretty short and sweet! We’ll do that again today, but I want to focus more on next week.
Today through Sunday
More of the same: Sun, heat advisories or excessive heat warnings, and very minimal rain chances. Highs near 100 or in the upper-90s. Lows near 80 each day.
I suppose Sunday may see a slightly better chance for a stray shower along the coast, but even that looks mediocre at best right now.
Monday & Tuesday
With the holiday weekend perhaps being four days for many of you, there will be obvious interest in Monday and Tuesday’s forecast. What we know is that rain chances will not be zero on those days. However, the higher rain chances next week look to hold off until Wednesday through Friday. Our shower chances will be about 10 to 20 percent on Monday and 30 percent on Tuesday, hopefully winding down in time for area fireworks displays. I don’t think anyone needs to alter plans for the Fourth, but it’s probably a good idea to think about a rain option, just to be extra safe, if only for a short period of time.
Rest of next week
As we move beyond Independence Day, it looks as though we will ease into more of a classic midsummer pattern for Houston. It won’t be cool, but it will be noticeably less hot. We should see fewer and less regular heat advisories or warnings. Expect highs more into the mid-90s, near average for this time of year. Morning lows will be mostly in the 70s to perhaps near 80 at times. But each day will carry at least a 20 to 40 percent chance of scattered thunderstorms to locally cool things off. Rain chances should build into the end of the week, nearing 50 percent on Thursday and Friday before declining once more.
No offense, Matt, but while the posts may have been short, they’ve not been very sweet!
It is pretty telling of the beastly weather when we’re rooting for “plain hot” versus “face melting hot”.
I’d hope to celebrate our independence from this blast furnace heat starting on Independence Day.
Still, the humidity is down and we had a really nice breeze last night. We sat outside (in the shade, of course) until the skeeters drove us back in when the breeze fell off around sunset.
Skeeters do not like wind. hook up a fan and that will drive them away.
What a beautiful title to the post! Haha, thanks Matt. Jesus loves you and saves (John 3:16; John 14:6)!
But Moses invests.
Is there an app for the eyewall?
Not yet. We need to see if it actually has an audience first! That’s probably a year or two away, assuming it gets there.
