HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Thanks to another round of dense sea fog along the coast today, we have a Dense Fog Advisory for coastal communities through 10AM. For those farther inland, it’s patchy fog and warm, soupy air. High temperatures today will warm into the low 80s, likely breaking all-time record high temperatures. This pattern will continue until a front brings some relief on Sunday.
How bad will the sea fog get this week?
The combination of very moist air in contact with the cool waters over the Gulf and Galveston Bay will give us a sea fog issue this week. Inland areas will see the fog during the early morning hours while coastal locations will deal with it off and on throughout the day and night. At time the visibility will drop below 1/2 mile so be careful.
Is it still looking warm for Christmas week?
Yep. December’s version of a heat ridge will park it over Texas for the week of Christmas. This will push highs toward record levels in the low 80s just about every day of the week. Bah humbug!
Are there any more freezes in the forecast?
Not for awhile! We are looking at above average low temperatures all the way through Christmas Day…and beyond. It’s hard to get a freeze when lows only drop into the 60s. We do have a cold front penciled in for the closing days of 2025, but we likely have to wait until January for our next chance at a freeze.
What about some measurable rain or any storms?
While there’s the chance for a few passing showers Wednesday (20% coverage) beyond that we don’t have much rain on the horizon until a front on Sunday. That said, some of the recent relief from drought conditions we saw this past fall wont last long, so drought conditions could creep back into the region.
