A weak cool front moving in on Tuesday will provide a small respite in humidity for many of us, but a strong Gulf breeze forming late in the week will bring warm and humid weather, as well as the possibility of rain over Easter weekend.
The majority of us will stay on the sticky side of the front overnight, with daybreak temperatures in the mid-60s, heavy humidity, and the possibility of fog on the morning drive. The front will pass across Houston around lunchtime, and you may notice lesser humidity with the northeast breeze in the afternoon.
Temperatures will still rise into the 80s, but highs will be in the lower 80s rather than the upper 80s for the majority.
Not long. This front will bring lows in the high 50s and low 60s Wednesday morning, before sticky air returns with a strong Gulf breeze. These gusts will be aided by an upper-level storm system reaching Texas over Easter weekend.
We’ll keep an eye on the upper-level Pacific storm that’s expected to strike Texas over Easter weekend. As it approaches, a strong Gulf breeze will bring increased humidity, temperatures, and clouds. We may expect lows in the low 70s and highs in the upper 80s both days this weekend.
At this moment, it appears that the upper-level storm will track just north of the state, bringing us warm, humid, and breezy weather with only a 30% chance of rain on Easter Sunday. If the low moves farther south, our odds of rain increase.
If you are driving to North Texas or Oklahoma for Easter weekend, you will be on the main storm track and may see severe weather. At the moment, Houston is only anticipating a few passing showers.
