FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast

Today has been an unusual summer day in Houston with refreshing cooler temperatures due to clouds and some heavy downpours. We also set a new record for daily maximum rainfall at Houston Bush Intercontinental Airport with 2.13"! Parts of SE Texas enjoyed the 70s this afternoon with rain-cooled air. Many areas have picked up 1-3" of rain today with a few showers lingering through early tonight. Watch out for some street flooding where the heavy rain has come down. Look for a 40% chance for showers and storms Friday afternoon with rain chances gradually dropping over the weekend. Another heat dome is set to push in early next week which could mean more heat alerts and another stretch of triple digits temperatures.
