The weather in Houston is set to be hot and humid this Tuesday, with temperatures expected to rise close to the 90s. Due to agricultural fires in Mexico, the area may experience some haziness as light smoke is carried in by southward breezes. However, rain chances are anticipated to increase later in the week.
Today and tomorrow will remain steamy and humid across Southeast Texas, with temperatures hovering around the 90-degree mark. Breezy south winds will persist, and the light smoke from the fires could cause occasional haze in the sky. Currently, the likelihood of rain remains low.
As the week progresses, storm chances will rise starting late Wednesday and extending through Friday as a cold front approaches the region. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected, particularly with the potential for more widespread rainfall from Thursday into Friday.
There is also a possibility of afternoon and evening storms on Wednesday; however, weather models provide mixed signals, leading to lower confidence in these predictions.
This weekend, a cold front will bring a welcome drop in temperatures, with highs in the 70s and morning lows dipping into the 50s. The decrease in humidity will contribute to a more comfortable atmosphere, setting a pleasant tone for the beginning of May.
