Houston weather: Sept. 26 evening forecast

Dry and pleasant conditions are expected to persist through the weekend and most of next week.

Refreshing mornings, afternoons still warm

Weather in the Houston area continues to be sunny and dry thanks to the front that moved through on Thursday. 

Early mornings will dip into the 60s inland, with coastal areas staying slightly warmer. By afternoon, highs should top out near 90, but with lower humidity making things feel nice and comfortable.

Similar weather continues for a week

Dry and pleasant conditions are expected to persist through the weekend and most of next week. 

Nights will remain clear and pleasant inland while daytime highs should stay in the upper 80s and low 90s. 

The only issue will be the chance of ozone air pollution each day today through the weekend and possibly next week. This phenomenon is very common on sunny days with light winds. It is mainly a concern for people with very sensitive lungs.

Tropics quiet for Gulf, active in the Atlantic

There are currently no tropical threats expected for the Gulf in the near term, but in the Atlantic, it's a much different story. 

"Post-Tropical Cyclone" Gabrielle is passing the Azores today and could bring wind and rain to Portugal this weekend. 

Hurricane Humberto is strengthening in the Atlantic and has become the third major hurricane of the season - the storm could stall between the US East Coast and Bermuda next week. 

Potential Tropical Cyclone Nine has formed near Cuba & will soon become Tropical Storm Imelda. Our models (including the GFS, Euro and Fox Weather Model) show that it could strike the Carolinas as a potent system early-mid next week. 

Tropical storm warnings have already been issued for the Central Bahamas, with tropical storm watches in place for the Northwest Bahamas.
