Our long string of above-average, humid weather will continue for the rest of the week and into the Juneteenth holiday. The latest plume of Saharan dust will arrive today and Thursday leading to a noticeable haze in the sky and a moderate effect on our air quality. Otherwise, there is a slight chance for a few small showers today and even isolated storms late tomorrow. Our best chance for rain (and it isn't a big chance) is Friday.

Even more Saharan Dust will move into Southeast Texas Wednesday afternoon keeping hazy conditions in the forecast for Houston. It has been a while since there has been measurable rain across the area, so most will welcome a shower or downpour on Friday or Saturday. More upper 90s return for the end of the weekend and the start of next week.

Heat, a muggy breeze and more Saharan dust are all in the forecast through Thursday. Highs should remain below records this week, but we will continue our streak of above-normal highs and lows. In all, we expect above-normal temps for the foreseeable future. Watch for thickening Saharan dust for Wednesday and Thursday along with the potential for air quality issues from dust suspended in the atmosphere. Some help may be on the way with scattered showers/storms on Friday and Saturday.

Another thick batch of Saharan Dust will arrive on Thursday worsening air quality and making the skies very hazy. Hopefully there will be a few much needed showers/storms around to start the weekend.

The National Hurricane Center is watching a broad area of disturbed weather located over the southwestern Caribbean Sea. And Houston is looking for more Saharan Dust!

Saharan dust blows in, joining the ongoing Houston heat wave

Saharan dust arrived this past weekend, bringing hazy skies and impacting air quality for sensitive groups in Houston, which is already experiencing a dangerous heat wave.

Hot, humid & hazy days ahead

Our heat wave continues and should stick around for most of the week. You also may notice hazy skies today and tomorrow after the arrival of a layer of Saharan dust this past weekend. In fact, air quality may be affected a bit by elevated levels of "particulate matter," which is basically microscopic dust. It won't bother most people, but those sensitive to it should avoid strenuous activity outdoors (which you would anyway due to the heat). Look for highs in the upper 90s today and mid to upper 90s for the rest of the week. We may finally see scattered storms late this week.
