FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast

Saharan dust plume that has traveled all the way from Africa is impacting the Houston area giving us hazy skies and not so stellar air quality. Air quality remains in the "unhealthy for sensitive groups" category. So if you are sensitive to air pollutants or have respiratory issues, try to limit time outside. Dust plume should clear some by this weekend leading to better air quality and less hazy skies. Heat remains intense the rest of this week with rain chances increasing a bit this weekend.
