Saturday weather forecast with Meteorologist Lena Maria Arango
A couple of light spotty showers are lingering along the coastline this morning, but otherwise it's a cool and quiet day. Enjoy it, because tomorrow our front returns... this time as a warm one. That'll bring our daytime highs into the 80s for much of next week, paired with a few isolated showers/storms on Sunday. Next week looks mostly dry until later in the week (great parade weather, hint hint). Our next front looks to arrive as we honor our Veterans on Friday, bringing the return of rain chances and a cooldown as we head into the weekend.

Saturday overnight/morning forecast
Our severe storm threat remains elevated across SE Texas through the rest of today and especially tonight. Most of the area remains under a Category 2 out of 5 threat for severe weather with a higher Category 3 out of 5 risk in our northern communities. Between now and 7PM, there will be a threat for a few supercell storms that could produce damaging winds or a brief tornado. Then expect a line of storms to develop that will roll through between 9 PM and 2 AM Saturday. Damaging winds 58+ MPH will be possible with this line. So make sure you have the FOX 26 weather app downloaded and have the alerts for your area turned on. Weather calms down for World Series Game 6 Saturday evening with no rain expected downtown. Election Day Tuesday also looks quiet.

Tropical Weather Forecast - November 4, 2022
Lisa is hanging out in the southern Gulf of Mexico as a Tropical Depression with winds of only 30 mph. It is expected to weaken to a post-tropical remnant low over the next few days, then fade away. I'm also watching two other areas of interest, a disturbance in the central Atlantic with only a 10% chance for development and an area that has the potential to see a tropical wave develop in the southwest Atlantic.

Possible showers as severe weather approaches Friday afternoon
Travel may get implicated, both on the roads and in the skies today as folks head to Houston for game 6 of the World Series. Please be extremely careful if driving especially after dark. Isolated strong to severe storms may pop up locally this afternoon through early evening. Past 10 p.m. or so, the threat shifts to the potential for straight-line damaging winds as the line of storms rolls through. Power outages are likely, along with isolated wind damage and briefly heavy rain/frequent thunder and lightning. Tornado and hail threats are lower for us, but cannot be completely ruled out. After a rocky start to the weekend, the rest of it looks fantastic and we can look forward to celebrating a game 6 win with an extra hour of sleep Sunday morning! The majority of next week will be quiet, sunny, and dry with seasonably warm temperatures.

Friday morning weather forecast with Chief Meteorologist Mike Iscovitz
Check your FOX 26 weather app throughout the day because scattered storms are expected by late afternoon, then we still expect a line of strong to severe storms between around 10pm and 2am to move through bringing high winds and brief heavy rain. The weekend looks pretty nice with clear, dry weather for Game 6 of the World Series.

Friday morning weather forecast
A few showers may roll through this evening and tonight as moisture increases ahead of our next storm system. The next cold front will arrive Friday night and will bring a round of strong to severe storms with the best chance from 8 pm Friday until 2 am Saturday. Main threat will be 60-70 mph damaging winds that could knock down trees and powerlines. But a tornado or two can't be ruled out so make sure you have the FOX 26 App downloaded and alerts turned on. 1-2 inches of rain will also be likely for some of the area that could elevate the flood threat. After this system moves out, we should dry things out and usher in quiet weather just in time for Game 6 of the World Series at Minute Maid Park. A few showers are possible Monday of next week but Election Day is looking dry.

Breezy, warm Thursday afternoon with some showers
Warmth and humidity will be on the rise today and tomorrow as gulf breezes continue to funnel in rich moisture ahead of our next storm system. An elevated strong to severe storm risk exists to our north during the day Friday, with a more subdued version reaching us closer to midnight. Strong winds continue to be the primary concern locally that could lead to some isolated wind damage and power outages in the overnight hours. After a brief dose of heavy rain, frequent thunder, and lightning we're looking better for World Series Game 6 at home, though a few daily lighter showers may linger through Monday.
