HOUSTON – A cold front is expected to bring significant weather changes to Southeast Texas, particularly on Election Day. While isolated showers may occur on Monday night, the main activity will be generated by the cold front advancing from the northwest, impacting areas such as Dallas, Waco, and Austin overnight.
As the front progresses into the Houston area on Tuesday, expect showers and thunderstorms to develop throughout the day. These storms could result in brief, heavy rainfall, strong winds, and lightning, particularly between late morning and late afternoon. Additionally, there is a slight tornado risk of about 2% for northeastern locations such as Livingston. Voters are advised to check local weather updates before heading out to the polls.
Following the passage of the cold front, a shift in weather will occur Tuesday night, ushering in cooler and drier air. This transition will lead to more pleasant conditions on Wednesday and Thursday, characterized by mostly clear skies, brisk nights, and comfortable daytime temperatures. Most areas in and around Houston can anticipate highs in the 70s and morning lows in the 50s, marking a return of that refreshing fall chill.
