Quiet Midweek Gives Way to Late-Week Rain From Texas to the Mid-Atlantic

Forecasts point to a late‑week pattern shift to widespread rain followed by a cooler weekend.

Overview

  • TODAY: Most areas are seasonable and largely dry with clouds lingering across the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic and chilly starts in New England.
  • Texas: Storms develop late Wednesday west of San Antonio with training cells bringing 0.5–2 inches of rain and localized flooding, then rain spreads east Thursday and tapers Friday after a front.
  • Houston: Near-record 80s and dense morning fog give way to increasing rain chances and a late‑week front that knocks temperatures back toward the 70s, with brief flooding possible on very dry soils.
  • Mid-Atlantic: Early Wednesday rain exits around daybreak near D.C. and Baltimore; another round arrives late Thursday into Friday with scattered showers and a better chance for rain Friday night, then gradual improvement Sunday.
  • Great Lakes and Northeast: The Ohio Valley and Midwest turn milder into the upper 40s to low 50s with rain returning late Thursday night into Friday, while New England stays cool with a limited shower risk Friday and a generally dry weekend.
