Helene strengthens | Fox 26 Houston Weather Forecast
Good Wednesday morning and happy "hump day". We're looking at a scary forecast for parts of Florida and a beautiful extended outlook for the Houston area. The latest with Helene is that as it passes by Cozumel, it will continue to get stronger and could become a major hurricane tomorrow as it barrels toward the Florida Panhandle and their west coast. Threats will include a significant storm surge, high winds, heavy rain and even a risk for tornadoes. After landfall late Thursday in Florida, Helene will also bring wind and rain to Georgia and points northward. Now, we don't want to get overly excited about changes coming our way, but a "cold front' this afternoon will bring scattered storms followed by slightly lower humidity and lows that should get into the 60s the next few mornings. Our afternoons will still be sunny and hot with highs in the low 90s.

Texas to enjoy cooler temps | Fox 26 Houston Weather Forecast
Good Tuesday morning, everyone. I'm back to the grind...not feeling great, but good enough. Lots to talk about in the world of weather. A developing low in the western Caribbean will almost certainly become a hurricane on Wednesday and hurricane watches are already up for Florida's gulf coast. The system that will become Hurricane Helene is going to bring high winds, storm surge and heavy rain to much of Florida on Thursday and Thursday night. Amazingly, this will mark the 4th hurricane to hit the US Gulf Coast this season and might be the strongest one yet. As far as impacts on Texas, there is great news for us. With the large circulation of the hurricane staying well to our east, a nice, dry north breeze will kick in here and I think there's a great chance we'll wake up to lows in the 60s for a few days - maybe even some low to mid 60s by Friday morning. Today, plan for scattered thunderstorms (a few hefty) between around 2pm and 9pm.
