Houston residents can expect patchy morning fog, followed by increasing clouds and a comfortable high near 73 degrees today. Despite a calm start to the day, gusts might reach as high as 25 mph by the afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.
Tonight, the forecast anticipates a low around 63 with southeast winds continuing to gust at similar speeds. FOX26 Houston reports that evening conditions will be ideal for the rodeo barbecue cookoff, despite a chance for some patchy fog, primarily closer to the coast. With the slim chance for sprinkles or light rain showers on Sunday, highs will still be comfortable, hovering in the 70s.
The week ahead sees a potential for weather disruptions as early as Monday night, with the National Weather Service forecasting cloudy skies and a low around 67 ahead of a chance of thunderstorms on Tuesday. Heavy showers and possibly a thunderstorm may roll in before noon on Tuesday, carrying an 80% chance of precipitation.
Those planning to attend the rodeo next week should be prepared for wet conditions. With high humidity and an approaching area of low pressure from the west, "conditions will be favorable for thunderstorms in Texas on Tuesday," FOX26 Houston explains. The exact timing of these storms remains uncertain, but visitors should anticipate rain, particularly mid-late Tuesday morning through early Tuesday afternoon.
Following the tumultuous weather, a clear Tuesday night with a low around 54 paves the way for sunnier days. Houstonians can expect a sunny Wednesday with a high near 69, and largely clear skies extending into the night, with mercury dipping to around 47. The remainder of the week promises more sun, with only a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms come Saturday, as per National Weather Service projections.
