Rain clears but clouds linger, feels-like temperatures in the 30s all day
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The rain has moved out but the clouds will linger keeping temperatures cold... with highs topping out in the mid 40s. Feels like temperatures will remain in the 30s due to a brisk northerly wind.
Tonight, skies should clear allowing for temperatures to drop below freezing for most of SE Texas. We also could see some patchy fog especially in our northern counties Saturday morning.
Could we get any freezing weather?
We do expect the freeze line to return to Southeast Texas Friday night into Saturday morning. 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 have departed by the temperatures drop to freezing.
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.
