HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — The forecast is drying out on Monday after a storm brought heavy rain to our northern counties overnight.

Temperatures are starting in the 70s, with highs climbing into the low to mid-90s across the region this afternoon and feels-like temps in the triple-digits.

How about the outlook for the first full week of June?

It’s definitely going to feel like summer this week! Our Gulf Coast humidity will be back next week and lead to humid mornings and steamy afternoons. Afternoon highs will consistently be in the low-mid 90s each day, and we can’t necessarily rule out a stray shower or storm any day Tuesday through Friday this week.

What’s the next big thing to know with regard to our Houston weather?

Well, it looks like the first heat dome of summer will arrive later this week. Afternoon highs Friday through Monday will be in the mid-upper 90s with a heat index that could make it feel like 105 degrees outside. This hot stretch could also include steamy mornings with morning lows near 80 degrees.

Hurricane season started Sunday, what can we expect this season?

We expect an active season. Both hurricane outlooks from NOAA and Colorado State University predict an above-normal season. But at this time, the tropics are quiet heading into the 2025 season with several plumes of Saharan Dust limiting tropical activity for now.
