Coolest air from our front arrives, stronger front in the forecast next week

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Wednesday morning should bring Houston’s first dip into the 50s since April 23! While it will be tempting to throw on that fall wardrobe, keep in mind high temperatures will still be hitting around 90 in the afternoon.

It will be another perfectly sunny day with a light breeze.

What’s the coolest it will get behind this front?

Wednesday looks to be our coolest morning, with widespread readings in the mid-to-upper 50s! But again, highs will still hit around 90, so make sure you dress appropriately!

How is the weekend weather looking?

We’ll keep it real. It’s going to be another hot October weekend. High temperatures will reach into the low-to-mid 90s both days, and the humidity will creep up a notch with the Gulf breeze returning Saturday. Sunday’s winds will turn more southwesterly ahead of our next front arriving late Monday.

What’s this about a stronger cool front next week?

The next front arriving late Monday looks to be backed with some legit cool air, and it’s looking like we’ll catch one day with a high in the 70s and a few more mornings in the 50s. There’s even a chance some could dip into the 40s!

What are you tracking in the tropics?

We’re monitoring major Hurricane Milton as it heads toward a Wednesday night landfall along Florida’s west coast. Regardless of the category, Milton will pack a large and destructive storm surge, devastating hurricane force winds, and catastrophic flash flooding.
