Houston weather: Keep the umbrella nearby! Another round of storms coming Friday and Saturday


HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — A weak summer front is now stalled out over Southeast Texas, and this will bring at least two more days of scattered thunderstorms in our part of Texas.

The next round of storms will pop up Friday morning impacting the morning commute. Houston’s highest rain chance will come in during the morning and early afternoons hours, and with the earlier onset of the rain, the storms won’t be as strong as in days past. Highs will peak early in the upper 80s and low 90s for many. Isolated strong thunderstorms are again possible with some storms packing wind gusts over 40 mph, pea size hail, frequent lightning, and a quick 1-2″ of heavy rain.

How much longer will this weak front impact our weather?

This front doesn’t really cool us off much, but it will continue to bring a chance of cooling downpours Friday and Saturday. The combination of widespread rain clouds and thunderstorms will keep high temperatures in the upper 80s to low 90s Friday and Saturday. Friday’s rain chance is at 60%, then it drops slightly to 40% Saturday as moisture lingers overhead, especially along and south of I-10. We’ll actually get a light northeast winds with this front through Saturday, which will bring the humidity down slightly by Sunday. That drier air still heats up quickly under the August sun, so we are in for a dry heat as highs reach into the mid-to-upper 90s.

What is happening in the tropics?

Erin is now pulling away from the U.S. East Coast, but will continue to bring big swells and rip currents through the end of the week along the eastern seaboard. We are also tracking two tropical waves in the eastern Atlantic, but their future impacts to land, if any, remain uncertain at this time.
