Rain clears but clouds linger, feels-like temperatures near freezing all day
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The rain is gone, but the clouds and cold air remain. Today will be a cold, blustery, cloudy day with a high temperature in the mid 40s but a feels-like temperature closer to freezing even during peak afternoon heating.
Could we get any freezing weather?
We do expect the freeze line to return to Southeast Texas Friday night. It will be a light freeze, so keep those cold weather precautions in place. We do not think there is much of a chance for any frozen precipitation because the moisture will be departing as the freeze line is arriving.
What does the weekend look like?
Saturday and Sunday will both bring cold mornings but milder afternoons. Saturday starts off with the light freeze then clears the 50 degree mark under a mostly sunny sky. Sunday morning could feature a coating of frost, but it now looks a weak weather disturbance will blow in to kick up the clouds and bring a 20% chance for showers. This could keep the low above frost territory, and the added clouds likely keep the high again in the 50s.
Are there any more freezes coming next week?
At this time we expect next week to be seasonable with no freezes for Houston. MLK Day weekend will feature a warm up into the 70s, but then a stronger cold front is expected to arrive, and that could bring back freezing temperatures after MLK Day.
