A strong cold front will pass through Southeast Texas on Wednesday afternoon, bringing a chance for strong or severe thunderstorms. Large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes are possible, but damaging wind gusts and locally heavy rainfall are the greatest concerns.

Most of Tuesday looks quiet, but the air will feel humid as Gulf moisture continues to stream in and isolated mid-to-late day showers are possible. A stronger system pushes in late Wednesday into Wednesday night, bringing a widespread round of showers and thunderstorms.

Unsettled weather lingers through early next week.

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has ended early for our southwestern counties

A FOX 26 Storm Alert is in effect as a stalled front brings rounds of heavy rain and severe weather Saturday afternoon through early Sunday.

Tuesday brings a few morning drizzles and a noticeable increase in humidity. That increasing moisture will set the stage for scattered showers or storms Wednesday as a higher risk for severe weather sets up across North Texas. Once that system passes, our rain chances will remain in the 20-30% range through Friday with otherwise pleasant weather in between occasional rain.

The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo officially kicks off this Monday under fantastic weather conditions.

Sunday will begin with pleasantly cool temps in the upper 50s along areas of dense fog, especially south of Houston and closer to the coast.

Look for temperatures to dip into the low-40s, maybe a few upper 30s, on Monday and Tuesday mornings.

The cold front quietly arrived on Saturday and Saturday night.
