FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast
Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall around 8 to 10 pm tonight between Tampa and Sarasota in Florida as a Major hurricane. There is still the risk for flash flooding, deadly storm surge, tornadoes and widespread damaging winds. 4 to 9" of rain has already fallen with at least 20 tornado reports across Central Florida. Milton will roll across the Florida Peninsula early Thursday and exit the east coast of Florida Thursday afternoon. Locally, look for another fall-like night with some areas dipping to the 50s. We'll have several sunny and dry days with warm afternoons and pleasant nights. Next cold front should arrive early next week and will give us even more of a taste of fall!

Much drier air will continue to filter into the Houston area that will translate into several quiet and rain-free days with lower humidity. Enjoy the cooler, pleasant mornings but plan for warm afternoons with temperatures near 90.

Hurricane Milton is expected to weaken to a strong Category 3 before a Wednesday night landfall near Tampa Bay. But that is still a dangerous Major hurricane! Tampa could get storm surge up to 15 feet with 5-12" of rain and damaging hurricane force winds. Life-threatening surf & rip currents are likely. Milton should exit Florida and start to weaken as it pushes into the western Atlantic Thursday afternoon and evening.

Hurricane Milton threatens Florida coast | Fox 26 Houston Weather Forecast
As Florida faces yet another major hurricane threat, the Houston area is looking high and dry. Locally, we are going to have sunny and very warm days along with clear and cool nights. In fact, we should feel widespread upper 50s and low 60s by mid-week. Terrific! Sadly, a very rare hurricane named Milton could bring high winds and very dangerous storm surge for the Florida Gulf Coast by Wednesday. A state of emergency has been declared and mass evacuations from the coastline will take place. A direct hit close to Tampa is possible, but everyone is hoping for some weakening before landfall. In our extended forecast, even over the next two weeks, the outlook is very dry and after soggy, flooding conditions from late April through July, we are slipping back into drought mode all across our part of Texas.

Weekend storms possible | Fox 26 Houston Weather Forecast
Our early fall heat wave will continue today with more highs in the low to mid 90s. Expect plenty of sunshine today and Thursday with decent humidity, but high temperatures running about 5-7 degrees above average. Rain chances will increase beginning Friday and for most of Saturday as we'll end up on the edge of a plume of tropical moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. Watch for storms, especially near the coast, but no organized tropical systems are headed our way. As mentioned over the last few days, conditions in the Gulf are messy and chaotic, so one or two areas of low pressure may come together and become tropical depressions or even a tropical storm over the next 7 days - the highest chance for any impacts from those systems would be along the Gulf coast of Mexico and also in Florida. Meanwhile in the middle of the Atlantic, hurricane Kirk is gaining strength, but not threatening land. Leslie could form inthe wake of Kirk, but also will not affect land.

Tropical storms forming | Fox 26 Houston Weather Forecast
After record or near record highs on Monday, today will bring more hot sunshine with highs in the mid 90s. Rain looks unlikely until the Friday-Saturday time frame when we'll have a combination of a cold front moving in and a plume of tropical moisture nearby. The timing and location is uncertain, but we'll keep an eye on Saturday as having our best rain chances. As far as tropical development, the Gulf of Mexico looks like it will be somewhat unsettled and chaotic for the next week or so. There will be several areas of stormy weather and an occasional small low forming - when all is said and done, there is a good chance for a tropical depression or possible storm in the central Gulf, but it doesn't look like it would move toward the Houston area. Elsewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, Kirk formed yesterday and will become the season's next hurricane with another wave possibly becoming Leslie today or tomorrow. Neither is a threat to land.
