HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — A “not as humid” front that has blown through will drop humidity levels for Friday and the weekend. While it won’t exactly be cold, it will lead to a few crisp mornings and comfortably warm afternoons.
Temperatures this afternoon will peak in the low 90s under a mostly sunny sky. A dry northeasterly wind will lower the humidity through the day, then a bigger humidity drop arrives tonight.
What is the coolest it will get behind the front?
Our coolest weather will occur around sunrise on Saturday when temperatures bottom out in the upper 50s and low 60s, so if you hit the pumpkin patch early enough it might feel like something that resembles fall. But if you wait until the afternoon, it will be pretty warm again with highs in the upper 80s.
Will the low humidity stick around for the whole weekend?
It sure will! The weather will be great for outdoor activities, but all this sunny, dry weather will continue to dry out the ground and increase drought and fire danger conditions.
What is happening in the tropics?
We are continuing to monitor what is now Tropical Storm Jerry. Jerry could intensify into a Category 1 hurricane as it moves east of Bermuda this weekend. For a thorough update and in-depth video on what’s happening in the tropics, head to our tropical update page.
