Saturday Evening Weather Forecast

A winter storm will impact southeast Texas on Valentine’s Day and last through Monday with frigid temperatures expected to filter in behind the storm. Winter Storm Warnings have been posted north and west of Houston as freezing drizzle could begin this evening before the main winter storm arrives Sunday evening. Other counties, including Harris, remain under a Winter Storm Watch. As we remain close to the freezing mark this morning, areas north of Houston have reported icy overpasses and bridges and that threat will continue through the morning. Moisture will build in on Sunday evening with rain, freezing rain and sleet all expected to last until Monday afternoon or early evening. Ice accumulations, up to 0.30” will be possible north of Houston with no more than 0.25” in the city. The freezing rain and sleet is expected to transition to all snow by Monday with accumulations possible, especially north of Houston. Monday night is when temperatures are expected to drop into the teens, if not lower. Wind chill values could drop below freezing by Tuesday morning. Colder air will remain in place and on Wednesday, another system may move through and bring additional wintry precipitation
