Cold and wet weekend ahead with thunderstorms possible Sunday
Rain chances will rise on a chilly Saturday with thunderstorms possible by Sunday morning.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- A rainmaker is blowing in for the weekend with temperatures remaining on the chilly side, but we'll be back in the 70s under a sunny sky next week.

What should we expect for the weekend?

It will be cold, but not freezing! The biggest thing to know about the weekend is you'll need both your jacket and your umbrella. Widespread drizzle, mist, and showers will build through the day on Saturday and continue into Sunday morning. Saturday's rain will generally be on the lighter side with the highest odds in the afternoon and evening. By Sunday morning we expect some cold thunderstorms with small hail and briefly heavy rain possible. Temperatures will warm from the 30s to the 40s on Saturday, then from the 40s to the 50s on Sunday.

Are we done with freezes after this cold snap?

While we cannot 100% rule out a late season freeze just yet, more than likely we are done with freezes. On average, Houston's last night in the 30s occurs around mid March. If we see any signs of a light freeze or frost on the horizon, we'll be sure to let you know!

How about some good news, any nice weather coming?

Next week looks gorgeous! We'll see plenty of sunshine and high temperatures mostly in the 70s for the work-week.
