A few more showers Tuesday and Wednesday, widespread rain Thursday

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Keep your umbrellas nearby the next 3 days! We are back in the jet stream storm track, and that will lead to plentiful clouds, widely scattered showers, and eventually some thunderstorms on Thursday.

Temperatures will only cool slightly through the 50s as the clouds hold tough through the night. Those widespread clouds will also keep highs from warming much into the low 60s. Another round of scattered showers is possible off and on throughout the day. Your chance of getting measurable rain is 30%.

What's the rain outlook look like for the rest of this week?

Compared to last week, this week's forecast is much more typical for Houston. It's going to be much warmer with a daily rain chance through Thursday. Our best chance of rain is Thursday as a Pacific cold front moves in. Some of those storms will bring heavy rain and could turn severe with hail and high winds.

How is our weekend shaping up?

It's looking really good! After Thursday's storm system clears out, we'll get an abundance of sunshine Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! Temperatures will dip into the mid 40s for morning lows both days this weekend, with highs in the 60s on Saturday and highs in the 70s on Sunday. Enjoy!

Any more snow in the forecast?

At this time, nope. Snow looks highly unlikely for the next two weeks with temperatures climbing back to their seasonal range and even above average into the 70s some afternoons. So any upcoming precipitation will be rain. Remember, snow events in southeast Texas are pretty rare, so we hope you enjoyed the rare snow storm last week!

What about another cold blast of freezing temperatures?

There are signs that another push of arctic air could dip down the Plains around the second weekend of February. It's still too early to be confidence about exact impacts and to tell how cold it could be, but there is the chance for below normal temperatures and a freeze during that timeframe.
