Houston is experiencing an unusually dry April, with only 0.13 inches of rain recorded so far, well below the typical rainfall for the month. Despite a weak cold front expected by Tuesday, the dry conditions are expected to continue, with temperatures in the mid-80s and little chance of precipitation. Monday will start with lows in the mid-60s, reaching highs in the 80s, and this pattern will persist throughout the week, as pern Houston Chronicle.

The city will see mostly sunny and clear skies, with only partly cloudy nights, according to the National Weather Service. While the dry weather continues, concerns are growing about potential drought conditions if the trend persists.

Looking ahead, long-range weather models suggest that Easter Sunday and the following week may bring a chance for significant rainfall and scattered thunderstorms in Southeast Texas. However, some of these storms could be severe, with risks of large hail and damaging winds.
