As we prepare to go into another weekend, get ready for more unsettled weather including a potential round of severe storms and a huge drop in temperatures. Sunday is a FOX 26 Storm Alert Day with the threat of severe storms during the afternoon and freezing temperatures for some overnight. Other than a few areas of fog late tonight, weather should be quiet with temperatures dipping to the middle 50s in Houston. Saturday will be a warm and breezy day with temperatures climbing to the low 70s with only a 10% chance for rain. Weather takes a drastic turn on Sunday with a round of strong to severe storms likely between 11 AM - 6 PM. Isolated tornadoes and damaging wind gusts will be the main risks with the highest threat north of Interstate 10 and east of Interstate 45. Make sure to download our FOX 26 weather app so that you will have a way to get severe weather alerts in your area. As storms roll out much colder air rolls in as a powerful cold front sends temperatures dropping to near freezing by Monday morning. In fact, temperatures stay well below normal all next week with highs in the 40s and overnight lows in the low to middle 30s for Houston. 20s are likely some nights next week for areas north of Houston. So prepare for multiple nights of potential freezing temperatures next week and the slight possibility of a few snowflakes or sleet pellets. A coastal low is expected to develop near the lower Texas coast that will spread some moisture our way late Wednesday into Thursday. There will also be a chance for light precipitation late Thursday into Friday. Most of this will likely fall as rain, but there's still a very low chance that there could be a light wintry mix. Right now the timing does not appear favorable for any major snow or ice for the Houston area. Make sure you are prepared for the upcoming freeze by filling up your car with gas, protecting your sensitive plants and insulating your pipes. Remember you will need extra layers too as this will likely be the coldest air so far this season.
