FOX 26 Friday night weather forecast
Near record heat has inundated SE Texas today with temperatures likely climbing to the low 90s again Saturday afternoon! Galveston did set a new record high of 89 degrees today which beats the previous record high of 87 set back in 2019. Plan on a toasty October weekend with highs near 90 through Sunday afternoon with plenty of sun and no rain expected. Weather pattern will start to shift early next week with some tropical moisture from the eastern Pacific moving back into the state. Most of this will remain to our west but spotty rain showers are possible Monday and Tuesday. Rain and storm chances increase closer to the end of next week as a cold front pushes into the area. Temperatures will also start to feel more like late October towards the end of next week. For now, enjoy summer in October this weekend and lets go Astros!

Tropical Weather Forecast - October 20, 2023
Tropics remain active with two hurricanes that we are currently tracking! There's Hurricane Tammy in the Atlantic and Hurricane Norma in the eastern Pacific. Tammy is expected to hit parts of the Lesser Antilles today and tomorrow before turning north. Damaging winds, large swells and several inches of rain will be possible that could lead to flooding. Guadeloupe remains under a hurricane warning with a tropical storm warning for Dominica. Tammy should stay away from the United States as it turns north then northeast early next week. Hurricane Norma is a major hurricane just west of Mexico. It is moving north and should hit the southern tip of the Baja Peninsula this weekend. Some of the moisture from Norma will spill into Texas early next week. Another broad area of low pressure in the SW Caribbean is being monitored for tropical development. But the chance is only 10-20% for now as it moves west. This system should push into Central America early next week.

FOX 26 Thursday night weather forecast
Weak cold front is pushing through this evening. But don't expect any chilly air or rain with it. It will only bring a brief wind shift and a drop in humidity. I expect temperatures to soar Friday and Saturday into the low 90s. Houston will be very close to record high temperatures by Friday afternoon. So remember to take it easy while working outside and drink plenty of water! High pressure builds in for the weekend which will mean mostly sunny and dry weather. But temperatures will remain toasty near 90. Bigger changes are set to return next week with rain chances improving during the week and a bigger drop in temperatures by the end of next week. That is when a stronger cold front is set to arrive. Weather should be quiet and dry up in north Texas for the Astros and Rangers games tonight and Friday. Let's Go Astros!

Tropical Weather Forecast - October 19, 2023
Things remain fairly active across the Atlantic and eastern Pacific. Tropical Storm Tammy is getting stronger and is moving closer to the Lesser Antilles where some hurricane watches, tropical storm watches, and tropical storm warnings are in place. Tammy is expected to bring heavy rain and strong winds to some of the Caribbean Islands Friday and Saturday before making a sharp turn to the north. That will take it away from the United States. In the Eastern Pacific Hurricane Norma has blown up to a major hurricane and should clip the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula this weekend. We could end up getting a bit of the tropical moisture from this system early next week. Gulf of Mexico waters are still warm but there are no tropical systems expected as of now. Hurricane season runs through the end of November.

It was another cool start across Houston and surrounding areas in the 40s and 50s. Tonight will be on the milder side with overnight lows dipping into the 60s for Houston.

Tropical Weather Forecast - 10-18-2023
We are rolling closer to the end of hurricane season but the tropics remain active. In the Atlantic, Invest 94-L has become Tropical Storm Tammy in the central Atlantic. Tropical Storm Warnings are now out for Barbados, Martinique & Guadeloupe. These Caribbean Islands could get 3-6"+ of rain and tropical storm force winds by Friday and Saturday. After that, Tammy is expected to turn north which would keep it out of the Gulf of Mexico and away from SE Texas. In the Eastern Pacific, Norma has become a hurricane west of Mexico and could send some moisture towards SE TX early next week. Norma will be near the Baja Peninsula by this weekend. There's also a high chance for a Tropical wave to develop south of S. Mexico over the next week.
