Houston Warms Back Into the 80s After Veterans Day Chill, With Weekend Rain Chances Ahead

A weekend cold front offers a cautious chance of drought relief.

Overview

  • Bush Intercontinental Airport hit 37 degrees Tuesday morning, the coldest reading since Feb. 22, with frost reported north and east of Houston.
  • Afternoon temperatures recovered into the 70s Tuesday, and highs are forecast to reach the low to mid-80s from Wednesday through Friday.
  • Southerly winds return with occasional 15–20 mph gusts, pushing dew points into the 60s and making conditions feel more humid.
  • Saturday looks warm and mostly dry near the mid-80s, with the best chance for showers holding off until Sunday and potentially early Monday.
  • Forecast timing remains uncertain because the incoming Pacific system has not yet moved ashore, though any rainfall would benefit parched soils and elevated fire danger areas.
