Good morning. After a weak cool front crossed the region later on Tuesday we’re seeing more normal temperatures for this time of year, with lows in the low 50s.
TODAY
A northerly flow will hold temperatures in the low 70s today under mostly sunny skies. However the front will wash out, and winds will resume from the Gulf of Mexico this evening, which in turn should prevent low temperatures from falling below 60 degrees.
THURSDAY
We’ll see fairly warm conditions, with highs near 80 degrees, before a second cold front arrives later in the day. This will drive lows down to near 50 degrees by Friday morning. Although we can’t rule out a stray shower with the front, I don’t expect any rain.
FRIDAY
After a relatively cool start to the day, highs on Friday will climb into the mid-70s under mostly sunny skies.
THE WEEKEND
We’ll continue to see seasonably warm conditions for the weekend, with highs in the mid-70s, under mostly sunny skies, and lows around 60 degrees. It will certainly be pleasant, but you might like the nights to be cooler.
NEXT WEEK
I’m still seeing a pattern change in the upper level of the atmosphere that will draw more moisture toward Texas early next week. We should see scattered to widespread rain showers from Monday through Wednesday, depending on the storm track, and mostly cloudy skies. It’s a bit too early to forecast rainfall amounts.
