Pleasant through Saturday, with a possibility of heavy rain next week

Good morning, it’s pleasantly cool out this morning, with low temperatures falling to around 50 degrees for most of the area in the wake of a cool front that moved into Houston on Wednesday.

TODAY

We’re now set up for three really nice days of spring-like weather. Today, with ample dry air and clear skies,we could see temperatures climb all the way into the low-80s, but we’ll still see a cool nights in the mid- to upper-50s as temperatures fall with the sunset.

Embrace to cool air, Texas, because in a few weeks most of this map will be orange during the morning hours. (Weather Bell)

After a front, pleasant spring weather through Saturday

It’s quite a bit warmer out this morning, with lows falling only to around 60 degrees across most of the Houston metro area.

TODAY

Highs today should climb into the upper 70s under partly cloud skies, and a cool front should reach the area during the afternoon hours, likely moving off the coast before sunset. Most likely it will be a dry front, with only a slight chance of spotty showers. Drier air will make for a cooler night tonight.

High resolution models show some spotty shower development near the coast this afternoon, but I wouldn't hold my breath. (Weather Bell)

Gorgeous Spring weather will continue through Saturday

Good morning. It’s another pleasant start to the day, with low temperatures in the low- to mid-50s.

TODAY

With mostly sunny conditions and a southerly wind, we’re likely to see high temperatures climb to around 80 degrees today. Tonight will be warmer with more moist air and some clouds, with lows only falling to around 60 degrees.

WEDNESDAY

Mostly cloudy skies should limit high temperatures to just below 80 degrees. A moderately strong cool front will approach the region during the day, and likely pass through the region some time around sunset or shortly thereafter. Because of warmer air aloft I don’t expect anything more than spotty showers during the evening hours.

Almost all of the rain associated with a mid-week front should come well to the northeast of Houston. (Weather Bell)

After a cool start this morning—about 50 degrees for most areas of town, warmer along the coast—we’ll warm to around 80 degrees under sunny skies. Winds out of the south-southwest will push low temperatures on Tuesday and Wednesday morning up to around 60 degrees.

Relative humidity levels are pleasantly low this morning across Houston. Enjoy!
