Weather Forecast

It'll be chilly for the final day of rodeo, but we should see a good amount of afternoon sunshine which will be a nice treat! Look out for a cold night, as many dip into the upper 30s for the bus stop hour tomorrow morning but otherwise, a quiet return to work and school locally. Spring begins and onshore flow returns, kicking off a warming trend through the end of the week. Rain chances in general are slim until Friday, which looks stormy as our next cold front pushes through.

Both the National Weather Service and viewers reported sleet pellets mixing in with a cold rain on Saturday morning on the south side of town in Houston.

"It's the last weekend of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, and Meteorologist Lena Maria Arango says the weather is finally giving us an opportunity to bust out our flannel and leather!"

Strong cold front that moved through Friday morning will mean below normal temperatures through early next week. A weak disturbance will bring a 30% chance for showers Saturday, mainly during the morning and afternoon with high temperatures in the 50s. Sunday should be dry but still mostly cloudy and chilly with temperatures climbing to the 50s. It will be a cool start to Spring on Monday with temperatures 15-20 degrees below normal. Small rain chances will be in the forecast Monday through Wednesday with a warming trend. We bounce back to the 80s by Thursday ahead of our next cold front that should bring rain and a few storms Thursday and Friday. Have a great weekend!

The bulk of the rain we'll be receiving today has already occurred this morning, look for ending showers but gusty winds linger into tomorrow. Another round of light, scattered showers will be with us early Saturday and cold, cloudy days linger through Monday. You'll want layers for the last few days of Spring Break and the Rodeo! Middle of next week shows a gradual warming trend, possibly curtailed by another late week front.

Storms are moving out but we hang onto a blanket of light-moderate rain through midday. This front drove in chilly air and cloudy skies that will linger through early next week. Overnight Sunday into Monday some inland locations may dip into the 30s, but should stay above freezing. Muggy, warm air returns by middle of next week, with our next front slated to boost rain chances late Thursday/early Friday.

Threat for severe weather will stick around through early Friday morning. Threat is lowest near the coast and higher farther inland. Strong wind gusts near 60 mph will be the main threat with any storms that reach severe levels with just a low tornado threat. Expect scattered storms through early evening, a bit of a break early tonight then a solid line of rain and storms overnight. The overnight storms will likely reach Brenham & Bryan/College Station around 10-11 pm, Houston around 1 am, and Galveston around 3-4 am. Frequent lightning and heavy rain could also pose some issues with widespread 1-2" totals expected with isolated higher amounts. As the cold front moves through, wind will really pick up with gusts near 40 mph. A WIND ADVISORY is in effect from 1-10 AM Friday. Remember to bring in or tie down lightweight/loose objects around your yard like your trash cans! Bands of rain will still move through Friday morning behind the main line of storms. Most of the rain should push out by lunchtime. Much cooler air builds in Friday with temperatures by evening down into the 40s with wind chills in the 30s! Get ready! Also, make sure to download the FOX 26 Weather App and turn the alerts on so that you'll be up to date!

Stay weather aware if headed to the rodeo tonight, as strong to severe storms are possible! Meteorologist Lena Maria Arango says we?ll be mutton bustin? out our jackets this weekend, as cold air spills in behind the front.

Strong to severe storms are possible later today through tomorrow morning, be sure to have multiple sources for alerts and remain weather aware if headed to the Rodeo. The line of storms will be in our far northern counties around the time the concert lets out, and should clear the coast closer to sunrise tomorrow morning. The second half of St. Patrick's Day will be drier, but cloudy and cool. Chilly air and cloudy skies will linger through Monday, with gradual warming by the middle of next week.

Big weather changes are rolling in over the next 24 hours with multiples rounds of heavy rain, the threat for severe storms and then a big temperature drop.

If you want to hit the livestock show, carnival or anything outdoors, I would recommend today as your best bet. Tomorrow looks windy and more humid with scattered showers likely beginning midday. Storms are expected overnight into Friday with some strong to severe storms possible. Chilly weather will follow and this weekend will bring jacket weather!

Look for milder air Wednesday with highs in the middle 70s and some sunshine. Even warmer air returns Thursday with breezy weather and temperatures near 80. The warmer air will be ahead of our next storm system that will bring in spotty rain and a few storms Thursday afternoon. Expect an even bigger round of heavy rain and storms to roll in late Thursday night into Friday morning as a strong cold front moves in. Some parts of SE Texas could pick up 1-2" of rain with this system with isolated higher amounts, especially north. There's also a risk for a few severe storms with the highest threat being farther inland for Houston and areas north. So stay alert Thursday night and Friday and make sure to download the FOX 26 weather app. Also, get ready for a big batch of chilly air that will inundate the area for the weekend!
