FOX 26 Weather Forecast

Beach Hazards statement remains in place along the coast until Sunday morning with the risk for elevated tide levels, more wave action, and a higher risk for rip currents. These are the only impacts we should feel from Hurricane Rafael which is moving west in the central Gulf of Mexico. Cold front will move through Houston by Saturday morning which will keep Rafael away from our area. Rafael should weaken to a tropical storm this weekend and then track into the SW Gulf of Mexico early next week as it falls apart. Cold front will bring an increased risk for showers and storms tonight through Saturday morning. A few storms could be strong but widespread severe weather is not likely. Best risk for winds near 50 mph and hail would be NW around Brenham, College Station & Huntsville. Rain chances will decrease Saturday afternoon and the majority of Sunday should be dry. Another front will bring some showers Wednesday followed by a nice drop in temperatures late next week.
