The weather in Houston takes a turn from sunny to stormy throughout the week with the National Weather Service predicting "a 30 percent chance of showers, mainly after midnight" on Tuesday night and increasing to "a 50 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms" by Saturday, signaling a gradually wetter forecast for the region. In the evenings, expect the temperatures to dip to near 47 degrees with mostly cloudy skies today, gradually warming to a low around 61 by Wednesday night, as reported by the National Weather Service.
Meanwhile, Chicago braces to continue feeling the winter's chill as temperatures today hover near the freezing point. According to FOX32, "Chicago will be cold today with highs around 30 degrees" and a forecast that includes possible snow flurries. To even approach a thaw, the city must wait until Wednesday with an expected high near 40 degrees, but this brief respite is quickly quashed as a cold front rolls in bringing "strong wind Wednesday night." The pattern appears to quickly turn, as highs are predicted only in the mid-20s on Thursday under sunny skies.
Houston residents are getting ready for more rain as temperatures rise to the low 70s by Wednesday. Meanwhile, Chicagoans are bracing for frost and a possible wintry mix, with highs only reaching the mid-20s by Thursday. Both regions face different weather challenges this week, with Texans watching for rain and Chicagoans dealing with cold temperatures and little warmth from the sun.
