As Christmas week approaches, Houston's weather will be warm and a bit stormy. Today, expect partly sunny skies with a high near 72°F. Later, there’s a slight chance of rain after 3 a.m., with overcast skies and a low around 62°F, as stated by the National Weather Service.
The forecast for Christmas week includes rain and thunderstorms, starting with a cold front on Christmas Eve afternoon and evening. "We are tracking a cold front that will bring in a chance for some showers and thunderstorms for Christmas Eve afternoon/evening," says Click2Houston, with possible small hail and gusty winds. The rain should ease up by Christmas Day, but there could still be morning showers and storms. The rest of the week has varying chances of rain, with Thursday night having a 70% chance, as reported by the National Weather Service.
The weather this holiday week will stay warm, with highs in the mid-70s, before a cold front brings rain. Some areas west of Houston and along the coast saw light showers on Monday, marking the start of changing weather. Despite this, the festive mood remains high, with "This shouldn’t be a problem at all with Rudolph on Santa’s team - they’ve traveled through much worse," according to Click2Houston.
