Houston Weather Update: Brace for Severe Storms and a Big Temperature Drop!
Hello, Houston! Get ready, because this weekend is bringing some wild weather our way. If you’ve enjoyed the warm temperatures lately, you might want to soak it all in while you can, as a significant change is just around the corner. Here’s what you need to know to prepare for the ups and downs in our weather.
The Wind is Coming, So Hold On Tight!
Starting on Thursday morning, a Wind Advisory will be in effect for much of Southeast Texas from 7 AM to 5 PM. You might want to secure any outside furniture because wind gusts could reach over 40 mph. That’s some serious wind folks, so be cautious if you’re out and about!
Speaking of Thursday, get ready for a warm day with temperatures hovering in the mid to upper 80s. In fact, we might even flirt with a record high of 87 degrees. It’s a warm day ahead, but keep in mind that isolated rain showers are also possible. Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts!
Rain Chances Pick Up on Friday
As we roll into Friday, the weather takes a turn. Rain chances will increase throughout the day, with about a 30% chance for Houston and a 40% chance for areas further north like Conroe. Strong to severe storms are expected to develop, especially in the northern counties. So, if you’re making plans, it might be a good idea to keep an umbrella handy!
Severe Storms Likely on Saturday
Fast forward to Saturday, and the weather really kicks into gear! A cold front is set to sweep through in the afternoon, and this could lead to severe storms popping up. If you hear thunder rumbling, don’t be alarmed. Just stay safe and be prepared!
The Big Chill: Sunday and Monday Forecast
After the cold front moves through, say goodbye to the warm weather! We’re looking at a dramatic drop in temperatures, with Sunday’s highs only reaching the 60s! Monday morning is going to be particularly brisk, with temperatures dipping down to the lower 50s and even upper 40s in some areas!
Good News for Drought Conditions
On the silver lining side, the rain we get this week could provide some much-needed relief to areas struggling with drought. Nature is always doing its thing, and this rain could help our thirsty landscapes.
Stay Informed and Prepare
As you can see, the weather is set to be quite the rollercoaster ride over the next week. With warm, muggy conditions lasting through Friday, followed by some chilly afternoons next week—with highs lingering in the 60s and 70s—let’s just say it’s going to be a week of notable fluctuations.
Keep yourself updated and prepared. Remember to stay safe during the stormy weather this weekend. And, of course, take a moment to enjoy the sunshine while it lasts this Thursday! Houston, it’s time to brace ourselves and get ready for all that Mother Nature has in store!
