Tropical Weather Forecast - May 30, 2023

Hurricane season begins in just 2 days and the National Hurricane Center is already monitoring a disorganized area of showers and storms in the eastern Gulf of Mexico for possible development. Right now, chance for development is very low (10%) over the next 48 hours with a 20% shot for formation into a tropical cyclone over the next 7 days. Regardless of development or not, models take this system into the Florida and away from Texas by this weekend.

Dry Sunday weather pattern with slight chances of stray showers, storms

Look for a pretty similar day to yesterday, with a slightly higher likelihood of seeing a stray shower or storm this afternoon. Monday will be a touch cooler with more clouds, and scattered afternoon thundershowers but not a washout. Models have trended down on the possibility for heavy rain locally Tuesday, pulling most of it south/out to sea but we'll keep our eyes on it for you. We'll roll into the weekend with more sunny, dry quiet days and as such - probably more air quality alerts for ozone

Houston weather: Air quality alert in effect, sunny Saturday evening in the 90s

Ozone levels continue to be a concern for some across the Houston area on the holiday weekend. Look for another Ozone Action Day on Sunday with only isolated chances for a shower. A few more showers/storms on Monday afternoon but no need to cancel outdoors plans. Stay connected to FOX26 as you head back to work on Tuesday with some heavy rain for some parts of Southeast Texas. Looking and feeling a lot like June as we move into next weekend.

Hot, hazy conditions with very light winds Saturday, more clouds expected Sunday

More hot and hazy sunshine is on the way today, with very light winds! So you won't have to worry about the napkins and paper plates flying around as you fire up the grill, or losing your umbrella at the beach. Look for more clouds tomorrow, but still a mostly dry day. Scattered storms and downpours will be in the mix from late Monday through early Wednesday before returning to mostly quiet weather.
