Forecasters are predicting plenty of sunshine and no rain in sight for most of the week. According to the Houston Chronicle, the city is expected to enjoy sunny days.
After Houston's sixth wettest January on record, with downpours amounting to over 8.75 inches at Bush Intercontinental Airport, and last week alone drenching the city with approximately 4.64 inches, forecasters are welcoming the shift. The National Weather Service's forecast reaffirmed the sunny outlook, projecting a comfortable high of 65 degrees today and a gentle westward breeze, though the week may start with "patchy fog before 9 am," as noted in detailed data accessible from the National Weather Service.
The warming trend will continue midweek, with temperatures potentially hitting the 70-degree mark, particularly by Wednesday. However, the city will wake to a cool Monday morning, with lows expected in the upper 30s to nearly 40 degrees in some areas, the Houston Chronicle reports.
At the end of the week, clouds might start gathering, yet high temperatures should remain, with the forecast showing a steady pattern of upper 60s through Friday. The coming weekend hints at a potential return to unsettled weather, with the National Weather Service noting "A 30 percent chance of showers after midnight. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 58." on Friday and an even higher likelihood of showers and perhaps even a thunderstorm on Saturday.
Despite the brighter forecast for the upcoming week, the Storm Prediction Center reaffirms that no thunderstorm activity is expected on Tuesday. As residents enjoy a tranquil week, the city's forecast suggests that any significant weather disturbance is on hold, at least until the week's end, with "more substantial rain arrives late in the day Friday and could come alongside torrential downpours." But for those delayed specifics, Houstonians will need to stay tuned for updates.
