Let's hope everyone power by then because the heat index will get close to 105 again. Watch for a few storms this afternoon with an otherwise warm and humid day. That won't last long as higher rain chances return from mid-week through the weekend. Gladly, the tropics are nice and quiet for now.

Look for the weekend to end a lot like it started with scattered afternoon downpours and spotty sunshine. The work week starts off warmer and with less rain than the weekend. Expect the heat index to stay around 105 for the next several days. The end of the week should bring higher rain chances back into the forecast.

Hurricane Beryl blasted across the Houston area early Monday bringing 70-100 mph winds and over a foot of rain to Houston. Five days later, several hundred thousand Houstonians are still without power and with no A/C. Scattered showers and storms have brought some heat relief the last few days & we'll have another round Saturday. But lightning might slow down crews restoring power from the storm. Rain chances will get lower early next week as temperatures increase so be careful in the heat!

FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast

Scattered heavy downpours brought electricity repairs to a halt briefly yesterday as some locations received more than 2 inches of rain accompanied by vivid, frequent lightning. We could see a repeat performance today and Saturday with some scattered thunderstorms expected, and a few of them could be heavy. A heat advisory is in effect again today, but most locations will have high temperatures of 90° or even slightly lower. Beyond Saturday, our forecast does look a bit warmer with high temperatures back in the low to middle 90s for Sunday through early next week. In the tropics, despite some rumors online to the contrary, we don’t see any systems forming over the next several days and everything looks relatively quiet for a while.

FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast

Flooding is once again a concern across the Houston area with rain and storms breaking out today. Rain led to some flooding across Houston and The Woodlands. Rain will wind down by sunset with more scattered storms the next few afternoons. That will mean some relief from the heat. But storms could delay crews trying to restore power to nearly one million Houstonians. Rain chances get a bit lower next week but the heat will increase again. One disturbance off the Florida east coast has a 10% chance of tropical development the next few days. But no tropical activity is expected in the Gulf of Mexico through the weekend.

Please take care of yourself and be careful because today we have both a heat advisory and expect scattered thunderstorms. Heat is the continuing hazard with so many without power and, with thousands working outdoors to cleanup after Beryl, lightning is a concern. “When thunder roars, go indoors”. In the extended outlook, we’ll have a good chance for scattered storms tomorrow and Saturday, but beyond that we are looking very hot and humid.

Beryl is gone and is now a tropical depression zipping through Arkansas and headed to the Great Lakes, so no more high winds or heavy rain today. The threat today is heat. Normally a normal, hot summer day wouldn't be a problem, but with millions still without power, high temperatures in the 90s and heat index values close to 105, everyone will need to find air conditioning today and please check on those who are particularly vulnerable - the elderly or disabled. A heat advisory is in effect for today and tonight and only isolated rain is possible today mostly near the coast. Tomorrow will still be muggy, but with a slightly better chance for a few storms. Late this week, we'll have a better chance for showers and a few storms to help cool the temperatures a little.As of today, there are no organized tropical systems expected across the Caribbean Sea or Gulf of Mexico for a while.
