FOX 26 Friday evening weather forecast

It's a big sports weekend across Houston with the Texans in action Sunday at Noon and Game 1 of the ALCS with the Rangers and Astros Sunday evening. It's been a very warm day with temperatures near 90. But a cold front will drop in early tonight and bring us a fresh dose of cooler, drier fall air for all of your fun weekend plans! Look for a stray shower or two with the front early tonight. But rain chances are only 20%. After tonight. we enter a dry period with no rain expected again until next Thursday and Friday. That means plenty of sun and dry weather this weekend. It will be breezy though with north winds around 10-20 mph. Weather should be great for viewing the solar eclipse Saturday. Best time to view it for Houston is around 11:58 AM when roughly 85% of the sun will be blocked by the moon. But make sure you have special glasses to keep your eyes safe! Enjoy your weekend!
