HOUSTON — High pressure will begin to build in from the Southeast. As this high moves overhead, rain chances will drop to nearly zero for the middle of the week. The lower rain chances and added sunshine mean temperatures will become a bit warmer, with some spots in the upper 90s and feels-like temperatures in the low 100s.

Much of the Houston and Galveston area is expected to experience heavy rainfall and scattered thunderstorms on Friday as remnants of a tropical disturbance that made its way from Florida move out of the Gulf.

For Houston, the best chance to see rain will likely be Friday afternoon, especially between 4 and 5 p.m., as the edge of the tropical moisture moves closer. Forecast models show some scattered showers or a quick downpour for eastern counties, but overall rainfall totals are expected to stay light — perhaps just a half an inch to an inch.

A weakening tropical disturbance that’s lingered near the northern Gulf Coast is losing its chance for development—but not before bringing moderate to heavy rain to Southeast Texas. T

HOUSTON — The Texas Hill Country is still reeling after deadly flooding left behind a trail of destruction and heartbreak. Lives were lost and forever changed by a single storm. Scientists are now warning this disaster was made worse by climate change and are sounding the alarm about what it means for the future of Texas.

For Houston, the best chance to see rain will likely be Friday afternoon, especially between 4 and 5 p.m., as the edge of the tropical moisture moves closer. Forecast models show some scattered showers or a quick downpour for eastern counties, but overall rainfall totals are expected to stay light — perhaps just a half an inch to an inch.

We’ll need to be ready for Houston to become seasonably hotter by midweek, with highs in the middle to upper 90s, the National Weather Service said.

Much like yesterday, we'll be hot today in the 90s with only a slight chance of rain. It's muggy this morning, then will turn partly cloudy. Prepare for increase in rain chances for tomorrow.
