FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast: Fantastic Friday ahead

Thicker clouds and spotty showers have greeted us today. Look for a few more showers this evening and tonight with a low chance for thunder. Any severe storm threat should stay to our NW over around Waco and Austin. Drier weather and more sunshine returns for Astros opening day on Thursday with pleasant afternoon temperatures in the 70s. Good Friday should be dry and a bit warmer. By Easter Sunday, heat & humidity increase even more with afternoon temperatures in the middle 80s. Low rain chances return early next week before a front cools us down again Wednesday. Grab our smart tv app Fox Local to get the latest weather, news and upcoming total solar eclipse coverage
