Beautiful weekend ahead for Houston

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Cooler air flowing in on a northeast breeze is here, bringing us afternoon high in the 70s with low humidity. Sunday also looks spectacular with sunshine warming temps from the mid 50s into the upper 70s!

How long does that nice weather stick around?

We'll get to enjoy it through Monday, then the strong Gulf breeze whips the warm, humid air back in here by Tuesday. The early outlook for the rest of next week also looks stormy with a similar pattern setting up again Wednesday through Saturday. We'll refine the details on next week's storm system in the days ahead.

How much rain did we get on Friday?

One to three inches fell across most of Southeast Texas with 2-4" more common over most of Houston and Harris County.

Does this mean the drought is over?

In some places, yes! We've already seen the drought end over parts of Houston, and this round of rain likely ended it over more of Houston and Harris County. We'll get official word on Thursday when the new Drought Monitor report is released. Expect drought improvement just about everywhere in Southeast Texas.

Will it rain again soon?

Maybe not "soon", but I like our chances for seeing some rain on Wednesday as a front pushes through. We could see a bit more rain into next weekend as well.
