FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast

It's still hot in Houston but at least we should stay below triple digits and are not expected to challenge record high temperatures. In fact temperatures will trend a bit cooler mid-late week in the low to middle 90s. An Air Quality Alert has been extended through Tuesday evening for Harris, Galveston & Brazoria counties. Ozone levels will remain elevated through Tuesday. Look for more clouds and better rain chances Wednesday through Friday with a decent chance for some heavy downpours. This won't erase the extreme drought conditions but every drop of rain helps. Two hurricanes are now out in the Atlantic. Margot is moving north and should stay away from land and Lee could get close to Bermuda late Thursday & threaten New England & Nova Scotia by Saturday.
