HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Tuesday will be a cloudy, warm and breezy day before a strong cold front moves through Wednesday. This front could produce strong to severe storms across Southeast Texas, which is why we have you on ABC13 Weather Watch for the day.

It’s another warm start to the day today with temperatures in the low 70s. And with it being a cloudy day, we’ll only see high temperatures climb into the low 80s. It’ll be breezy though, with winds picking up out of the south, gusting upwards of 20 to 25 mph at times. This warm, breezy weather is ahead of a strong cold front that arrives tomorrow and will bring widely scattered storms Wednesday, then cooler temperatures Thursday.

Tell me more about Wednesday’s ABC13 Weather Watch.

Wednesday we’re expecting a cold front to sweep through Southeast Texas that could bring scattered showers and storms during the day. The midday and afternoon hours will more than likely be the stormiest time of day with the possibility for storms arriving as early as Noon. There’s the chance a few of these storms could be on the stronger side with brief heavy rainfall, lightning, and strong winds. An isolated tornado can’t be ruled out but the chance is low right now. And since these storms have the potential to impact your Spring Break plans and the rodeo, we’ve got you on ABC13 Weather Watch. Once the front clears, cooler, drier and less humid weather rolls in for Thursday.

What’s the outlook for the rest of Spring Break?

It’s going to be a warm and humid again on Tuesday. Sea fog may become an issue at times especially near the coast. Wednesday is the day that brings the change with a cold front moving through Southeast Texas, potentially bringing a fast-moving line of storms to Houston. For that, we have an ABC13 Weather Watch to account for the chance these storms impact your plants with heavy rainfall, gusty winds and lightning. Once the front clears, we’ll see cooler, drier and less humid conditions settle in for Thursday and Friday

Are we expecting any more frosty mornings this winter season?

Not at this time. While we can’t 100% rule out another run at frosty weather later in March or even April, odds favor those who want to start tending to their garden beds. We might make it into the upper 40s behind the cold front arriving during Spring Break, but that shouldn’t pose a threat to tropical plants.
