Houston weather: Beautiful Friday; possible storms on Sunday night
Houston weekend weather: Slight severe storm chances for Sunday
We're warming up, but you may need an umbrella. Here's a Friday update from FOX 26 Meteorologist Remeisha Shade.
Gorgeous day, but forest fire continues in San Jacinto Co.
What we know:
The rest of today will be beautiful & dry with high temperatures about 5-7 degrees warmer than yesterday.
Humidity will remain low, so it's not great news for firefighters battling the Pauline Road fire, but we will have a gradual increase in humidity levels over the next 48 hours or so.
Big changes arrive Sunday
What's next:
Much more humidity returns on Sunday with a few morning drizzles and some scattered showers possible by the afternoon and evening.
Some models are showing a risk of storms late Sunday into early Monday. The Storm Prediction Center is also showing a slight chance for strong storms north of the Houston area during that time, so just stay weather-aware beginning Sunday night. It's certainly possible that everything stays well north of our area, but it could be a close call.
Staying warm for the extended forecast
Big picture view:
There's a very good chance that this morning will have been the coolest we'll feel for a long time. The rest of the month of March should bring above-average temperatures and lows in the 30s or low 40s are rare for April.
