So another winner of a day is on tap for Friday: Lots of sun and highs actually a couple degrees cooler than we saw yesterday. Saturday should be similarly nice, with just a few high clouds perhaps later in the day and highs in the low 60s.

SUNDAY

No real serious weather worries are expected here, but we will start to notice significant changes. Dewpoints should slowly creep up from the 50s into the lower 60s later Sunday. We’ll also add a good bit of cloud cover to the mix with temperatures back up near 70°.

On Thursday, we maxed out at 78° officially at Bush Airport and 80° at Hobby. If you thought yesterday was warm, wait until today.

I’m not sure what the split is going to be on today’s weather, but I imagine about 50% of you will love it and 50% of you will loathe it. It’s going to feel like more like early to mid-fall than almost winter: High humidity and very warm temperatures. We should be able to officially slide past 80° this afternoon for the first time since November 16th. Hey, at least we aren’t Laredo, which should test 90° this afternoon! Aside from warmth, it will be dry with a mix of clouds and sun.

If you liked the original episode of “Sunny and Cool December Day,” you will love the rerun that will air today.

TODAY-TUESDAY

As Eric has been laying out, this is a pretty straightforward, almost boring weather pattern that we are lodged in. Boring weather is a very, very good thing right now. Houston gets “all” the sunshine. We still have another weak and dry cold front projected to move through later this weekend. You may notice a wind shift or a few extra clouds ahead of it and with it Saturday into Sunday morning. Aside from that, it’ll be tough to differentiate each day over the next five to six days: Lows generally in the 40s in Houston (30s in some outlying areas), with highs in the 60s.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! If you choose not to burn calories fighting shoppers today, you’ll have clouds and humidity to contend with in and around the Houston area.

TODAY

I’ve been apt to describe this weather pattern as “obnoxious,” because it is. It’s a lot of clouds, a lot of humidity, tricky temperatures, and some light rain. It makes forecasting and planning for each day a little annoying. Anyway, today will be similar to Thanksgiving: Warm, humid, cloudy, and a few showers around (nothing major).

We hit 77° on Thanksgiving, making it the warmest Thanksgiving Day in Houston since way back in 2012 when we also hit 77° that day. We’ll end up somewhere around that number today too.
