FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast

Get ready for widespread rain to roll in by Friday morning. Severe weather is not expected but steady light to moderate rain is a good bet as a coastal low develops and moves close to our area. Heaviest rain is expected to be south of I-10 close to the coast with totals around 1" possible Friday and Saturday. Temperatures will remain on the mild side Friday but expect a big drop in temperatures Saturday. That is because a cold front will move through late Friday into early Saturday. High temperatures Saturday will only be near 50 with some areas just outside of Houston near freezing Sunday morning. Presidents' Day is looking pleasant and dry with temperatures near 70. Big warming trend will commence next week as we are back close to 80 by Tuesday. The World's Championship BBQ Cookoff is just one week away and it looks warm and dry for the start of it for now.
