Houston weather: Hottest day of the week on Friday, rain chances possible Saturday

Friday will likely be the hottest day of the week with temps near 92 degrees for the Houston area and heat index values near 100 degrees for some. Take it easy in the heat and keep in mind that an air quality alert for ozone will once again be in effect. Rain chances increase a bit Saturday as a weak cold front rolls in from the north. But we are still just talking about a 30% chance for rain Saturday and Sunday. Next week will feature more typical May weather with seasonable temperatures and small chances for rain.
