HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Sunday will be mostly dry, but more moisture will lead to more chances for scattered storms as early as Monday.
Sunday will bring partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies with temperatures in the upper 90s. Feels like temps should top out between 105-107. An isolated storm or two is possible but chances for rain should stay below 20%.
Any more heavy storms on the horizon?
Despite a mostly dry Sunday, moisture will return next week and we should get much needed rain each and every afternoon. On Tuesday parts of the area are highlighted for a low risk of heavy rain / flooding from the WPC (Weather Prediction Center). I’m not expecting any widespread flood concerns, but the idea is that we do have the chance for some beneficial heavy rains next week.
Are we done with 100 degree weather?
Unfortunately, no. While we currently don’t have any triple digits in the 10 day forecast for Houston, a new heat ridge is expected to build back into Texas by the middle of August, if not sooner.
Is there anything worth watching in the tropics?
Another large Saharan dust cloud is moving across the Atlantic Ocean, but there are also large tropical waves emerging south of it. These waves often clear out the dust so that following tropical wave have room to develop. In other words, the tropics may start to get active in August as is typical in hurricane season.
