We’re on cruise control in the weather department, mostly. It’s a little chilly out there this morning! We’ve got mid to upper 30s officially at Bush and Hobby, but the outer suburbs are all generally in the low 30s, with a few upper 20s peppered in for some also.

TODAY AND SATURDAY

Another stunner of a winter day today after the AM chill. Expect loads of sunshine throughout the day and high temps up near 60 degrees.

Ahead of our next system tonight, temperatures won’t be quite as cool, so upper 30s to low 40s. Clouds will increase and we could see a few showers by early Saturday morning. The threat of a few showers continues into early Saturday afternoon, but we’ll start to clear out later and find temperatures around 60° or so again, provided we see sunshine.

I’m not sure you could script a string of days better than you could have yesterday, today, and Saturday here in the Houston area. If you know anyone up north, these are the types of days you package up and sell to them in January.

TODAY 

Sunshine will dominate the skies once again today. After hitting 65° yesterday, we’ll make a run for the low 70s today.

I think today is most definitely a near-perfect weather day for most people.

A cold front has pushed through the region, bringing some showers that look to continue (especially south and east of Houston) for much of today.

TODAY

Rain showers will continue off and on throughout the day, especially as you work south of I-10 and east of I-45. Radar as of 6:15 AM shows heavy showers in Brazoria County (where a Flood Advisory was just issued) and lighter showers extending north and east from there along the coast to Port Arthur.

As the day wears on, these showers will more or less continue in place. Some parts of Brazoria County have seen 1-2″, mainly north and west of Angleton, so some typical nuisance flooding seems possible there as rains continue. It won’t be until tonight that we kick this stuff out of here, as an upper level trough swings through, ending rain from west to east.

Outside of rain, it will be a notably “raw” day today: Temperatures mainly in the low to mid 50s and edging downward into the 40s as the day wears on. Add in the dampness and some 20 mph wind gusts, and you have the recipe for a pretty wintry day by Houston standards.
