FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast
Much drier air will continue to filter into the Houston area that will translate into several quiet and rain-free days with lower humidity. Enjoy the cooler, pleasant mornings but plan for warm afternoons with temperatures near 90. Weather is just the opposite for Florida with the approach of Hurricane Milton which is back up to a Category 5! Hurricane Milton is expected to weaken to a strong Category 3 before a Wednesday night landfall near Tampa Bay. But that is still a dangerous Major hurricane! Tampa could get storm surge up to 15 feet with 5-12" of rain and damaging hurricane force winds. Life-threatening surf & rip currents are likely. Milton should exit Florida and start to weaken as it pushes into the western Atlantic Thursday afternoon and evening.

Warm days, cool nights | Fox 26 Houston Weather Forecast
While a historically powerful Hurricane Milton creeps closer to Florida's gulf coast, we are going to experience outstanding weather. Expect sunshine and low humidity, warm days and cool nights. We will begin to talk about drought conditions soon because little to no significant rain is on the way over the next couple of weeks. Hurricane Milton strengthened from a tropical depression to a 180 mph category 5 monster in just 48 hours - a record for the entire Atlantic basin. The hurricane is likely to get larger before making landfall in Florida late Wednesday even if the maximum winds decrease a bit. Storm surge, high winds, flooding and even tornadoes are all possible. Locally, enjoy lows in the low 60s and some upper 50s, sunny highs near 90.

Hurricane Milton threatens Florida coast | Fox 26 Houston Weather Forecast
As Florida faces yet another major hurricane threat, the Houston area is looking high and dry. Locally, we are going to have sunny and very warm days along with clear and cool nights. In fact, we should feel widespread upper 50s and low 60s by mid-week. Terrific! Sadly, a very rare hurricane named Milton could bring high winds and very dangerous storm surge for the Florida Gulf Coast by Wednesday. A state of emergency has been declared and mass evacuations from the coastline will take place. A direct hit close to Tampa is possible, but everyone is hoping for some weakening before landfall. In our extended forecast, even over the next two weeks, the outlook is very dry and after soggy, flooding conditions from late April through July, we are slipping back into drought mode all across our part of Texas.
