Houston will have mostly sunny skies this weekend with highs near the mid-90s. Southeast winds will be light to moderate, and evening temperatures will cool only slightly, according to the National Weather Service.

Houston remains hot as an air quality alert is in effect. "Today's hourly planner: those sensitive to air quality might want to limit afternoon outdoor activities," as reported by Click2Houston. There is a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms on Sunday afternoon. Early-week evenings will be mostly clear with lows in the mid-70s. By Thursday, there is a slight chance of rain, and temperatures may reach near 94 degrees.

Meteorologists are tracking a wave of thunderstorms off Africa’s west coast. Click2Houston said, "There’s a potential for a tropical depression by mid-next week." Residents are advised to follow local hurricane preparedness resources. KPRC 2 is also asking people to share weather photos and videos from Houston.
