Storm chances dropping temporarily

Houston will see less afternoon downpours today, but the air remains very warm and humid.

Texas Hill Country dry

The Texas Hill Country forecast shifts to mostly sunny, dry, and hot conditions through the rest of the week, with high temperatures generally in the mid-90s.

Tropical outlook: Watching the Gulf

The National Hurricane Center is monitoring a trough of low pressure located over the panhandle of Florida. It is forecast to move westward into the northeastern Gulf of Mexico and stay right along the coast as it moves west.

Most models show slow development of the system and a relatively weak low south of New Orleans by Thursday.

For now, expect the possibility for more downpours in the Houston area on Friday and Saturday.
