Good morning. You may have seen that a subtropical storm is likely to form off the southeastern United States during the next several days. It presents no threat to land, and it’s not all that uncommon for these kinds of tropical systems to form in May. However, the system should serve as a reminder that […]

Good morning. Temperatures this morning have only fallen to around 70 degrees, markedly warmer than recent days. However, the ascent of our daytime temperatures will be slowed this week—we should stay comfortably in the 80s rather than going up to 90 degrees—by decent rain chances and the possibility of storms. A fairly potent upper-level low […]

Good morning. It’s another cool start to the day—for May, at least—with lows dropping into the upper 50s for the northern half of the region. I hate to write this, but this is probably much of the region’s last flirtation with the 50s for at least four months. After this weekend’s sublime weather we’re not […]

Good morning. After a wonderful Wednesday we will see one more sunny day before a potentially stormy Friday. The inclement weather on Friday should lead to a spectacular spring weekend for May, with sunshine and highs possibly in the 70s for both days and abundant dry air. If you missed our weekly Weather Wednesday video […]

Houston experienced a round of storms during the evening hours, and then again after midnight as a cool front swept through the area. Now those storms are moving offshore.

Good morning. Houston faces a round of scattered storms later today as a weak front moves into, and through the region. Another front arrives later on Friday to set the stage for a great spring weekend. As a reminder, we’ll be producing our second Weather Wednesday video tomorrow at 2pm CT, over on our Facebook […]

Good morning. Houston will see a couple of chances for showers this week, but for the most part we should see partly to mostly sunny weather. And I don’t want us to get too far ahead of ourselves, but it sure looks like this weekend could see some really nice weather for May. Some areas […]

Good morning. Before we jump into the forecast here’s a quick look back at some of the damage caused by storms that bulled through the Houston area on Wednesday morning: One man was killed in Huntsville when a tree fell on his master bedroom 73 mph wind gust recorded on North Jetty in Galveston 71 […]

Good morning. As expected, a squall line a storms rumbled through Houston early Wednesday morning. Some bowing segments of the line brought damaging winds and frequent lightning, knocking power out to about 160,000 residences and businesses. But it’s not just Houston—this impressive line of storms stretches from west of Austin all the way to the […]
