After some nastier than expected thunderstorms moved through Houston on Tuesday evening, with damaging winds west and south of Houston, conditions have settled down nicely. Fewer than 3,000 CenterPoint Energy customers remain without power, and skies are clearing as the sun comes up this morning. Notably, Bush Intercontinental Airport did officially fall below 60 degrees this morning, giving Houston its coolest temperature in late May in two decades. Enjoy the cooler weather—because you know it won’t last.

Today
What a day we have in store. After a cool start, with northerly winds holding down humidity levels, highs today should climb into the low to mid-80s with mostly sunny skies. Conditions will be marvelous this evening. Simply exceptional weather for late May.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday
Thursday morning will be pleasant again, with lows generally in the mid-60s across the region. But winds should begin to swing back around to come out of the south by Thursday morning, which will signal the end of our spring fling, and a slow rise in humidity levels. Look for high temperatures in the upper 80s to 90 degrees to end the work week, and into Saturday, with continued sunny skies.
