Houston's Friday will start near 65 degrees, with clouds and a growing chance of rain during the day. Temperatures should reach 81 degrees, with east winds running around 5 to 10 mph.
Friday Rain Chances Arrive After Noon
Showers could begin popping up after noon Friday, with the rain chance reaching about 20%. Friday night brings another chance for showers, with a few thunderstorms possible late and temperatures settling near 67 degrees.
The latest outlook is a wetter update from Hoodline's Thursday forecast, especially for Halloween plans, as Saturday's daytime rain chance has climbed to about 50%. The forecast from the National Weather Service Houston/Galveston calls for scattered showers and thunderstorms.
Halloween May Start Damp, Then Improve
Saturday's best chance for showers and thunderstorms comes during the day, including before early afternoon, which could complicate outdoor events and daytime Halloween activities. The weather service expects the activity to gradually diminish by early evening, giving most trick-or-treaters a better shot at a drier night.
Sunday and Monday look warmer and quieter, with partly sunny skies and highs near 83 degrees. Rain chances stay low through most of Monday before the next storm system arrives.
Storms Return Tuesday Before Cooler Air
Tuesday carries an 80% chance of showers and thunderstorms as a cold front moves through the region. Behind it, Wednesday may turn slightly cooler.
No watches, warnings or advisories are posted for the Houston area in the current forecast. For now, the weekend plan is simple: keep an umbrella nearby Friday and Saturday, then enjoy the warmer, drier stretch before Tuesday's more organized round of storms.
