Another round of scattered rain today followed by a gorgeous weekend
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Another day to grab the umbrella as you leave the house. We saw some light rain showers this morning, and have about a 40% chance of more scattered downpours this afternoon. With all the clouds and rain around, highs should top out in the mid to upper 80s. We'll have a strong northeast wind at 25 mph wrapping around the Gulf low, which should get pushed farther offshore as our "Fall-ish" front approaches.

Tell me more about this "Fall-ish" front! How cool will it get?
We are predicting lows in the mid-to-upper 60s Sunday and Monday mornings! You'll first notice the northeast wind dropping the humidity in a big way Saturday evening. This front will bring some major humidity relief, but it now looks like the the relief will be short-lived as tropical moisture starts to push back in on Monday.
What are you tracking in the tropics?
In addition to the low pressure just offshore from Texas, we are also closely monitoring a tropical wave over the western Caribbean. It has a low chance of development once it reaches the Bay of Campeche early next week, but it will combine its moisture with the low pressure near Texas. This moisture will pull north toward Texas and Louisiana to bring back higher rain chances. Head to our daily Tropical Update page for the latest on what's happening in the tropics.
