HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Another cold front will slide through the region Saturday night ad help temperatures fall into the upper 40s or low 50s Sunday morning. Winds will also die down overnight, out of the north for Sunday between 5 to 15 mph and not as gusty either. Sunday will be another beautiful day with lots of sunshine and high temperatures climbing into the mid-upper 50s.
It’s been pretty dry lately. When’s our next chance for rain?
We’ve got our eyes on another cold front moving through Southeast Texas on Wednesday. Rain chances are slim once again with this front, only a 20% chance Wednesday evening. However, this front will drop temperatures for the first day of Spring on Thursday. Next best chance for rain after that is next Sunday. That means southeast Texas is expected to only pickup about a quarter to half an inch of rain if that over the next 7 days.
So does that mean the risk for wildfires will continue?
Unfortunately, yes. And drought conditions could also get worse over the next two weeks with only a few small chances for rain over the next 10 days. Currently only Brazos County is under a burn ban, though unprescribed outdoor burns are not advised at this time.
Speaking of spring, what’s the latest on pollen?
Tree and grass pollen have risen to the high territory for now. It’s the oak pollen that’s the problem if you’re sneezing right now.
