Houston will see rain for the next few days. Today, expect showers and thunderstorms before 1pm, with more rain and storms between 1pm and 5pm. The chance of rain is 90%, and gusty winds are possible. On Wednesday, light showers will start in the morning, then heavier rain in the afternoon and evening. "The tropical moisture streaming up from the Gulf will bring the possibility of some heavier downpours at times." Wet roads will likely cause delays, so allow extra travel time, according to the National Weather Service and Click2Houston.

Houston will continue to see showers and thunderstorms tonight, with a 60% chance of rain and up to a quarter-inch of new rainfall. The overcast weather will last through the weekend, with rain chances at 20% on Thursday and 40% on Friday night. The weekend could bring 2 to 4 inches of rain, especially near the coast and east of the city. "Another rainy set-up heading into the weekend," says Click2Houston.

Sunday will bring heavy rain with an 80% chance of showers and possible thunderstorms. However, "a strong cold front will move through next Monday," helping to clear the rain and cool temperatures. For updates, check the National Weather Service or Click2Houston
