A sun-soaked forecast for the rest of the week in Houston

In brief: Other than some periods of poor air quality, the forecast for Houston is about as perfect for springtime as it gets with sunshine and low humidity through the weekend.

Today through Sunday

This is really going to extend an incredible stretch of sunny weather here in Houston. Very few clouds are expected over the next 5 days, with sunshine each day. You will see and hear about air quality advisories. The plentiful sunshine tends to interact with pollutants from cars and petrochemical facilities to produce ground ozone. You can read more about this here, but suffice to say, there will be periods of unhealthy air quality in the morning or evening, especially today, tomorrow, and Friday.

Temperatures will flop around a bit. We’ll do low 80s today, mid-80s tomorrow and Friday, low to mid-80s on Saturday, and then mid to upper-80s on Sunday. Morning lows will be in the 50s or 60s. Overall, this will also be a fairly pleasant, dry air mass. Humidity will increase some this weekend but not to levels that would be deemed uncomfortable.

Next week

Even next week the pattern doesn’t change a whole heck of a lot for Southeast Texas. We should see more humidity, a little bit more in the way of cloud cover, and eventually some additional storm chances. Those probably don’t become really notable until later in the week. Temperatures should start to increase some and push 90 degrees by Monday or Tuesday.

Temperatures could begin to push 90 degrees by early next week. (Pivotal Weather)

Bottom line: Enjoy this week’s stretch because you never know how many more like this we’ll get before summer sets in.

  1. Weather to truly be appreciated! Sporting Clays on Friday and the winds are less than 5 mph with some delightful temps! Glad the weather works out well at least once in a while.

  2. It’s amazing every time I go back to the Pac NW to visit, I can feel the inflammation diminish in my airways. I miss truly fresh air.
