Houston weather: Spring break forecast, allergy report

HOUSTON - Each day this week will bring only minor changes, so overall it's good news for kids on spring break this week.

Wind Advisory Tuesday

Slim chances of rain this week, so overall it's good news for kids on spring break. It won't exactly be perfect beach weather (due to occasional gusty winds), but it should be a great week to enjoy the rodeo. 

Look for lows in the 50s and 60s early in the week, then 40s late this week. Highs will reach the 70s and low 80s and humidity should remain fairly low. 

There is a slight chance of a few showers on Wednesday morning, because of a passing front, but not much to worry about. That cooler and even drier air moves into Southeast Texas behind the front. 

Thursday and Friday will be cooler in the mornings and afternoons.

Oak pollen explosion

It's that time of the year. 

March and April bring lots of pollen. Both tree and grass pollen are common this time of the year. So far, oak pollen has been the biggest issue for allergy sufferers, and you should expect those levels to remain high all week.

Fire threat continues to our west

A large wildfire near Fredericksburg, Texas, has charred more than 9,000 acres and is only about 65% contained

Wildfires will be a continuing concern and topic of discussion in our forecast for the next several weeks. Little to no rain is expected for Central and West Texas over the next seven days. 

Our area is dry, but most locations aren't technically in a drought yet. Our next best chance for rain arrives on Sunday.
