HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — We’ve got an ABC13 Weather Watch for Wednesday morning as a line of strong thunderstorms could bring street flooding and gusty winds ahead of the morning commute.

After an intense line of storms tracked though Southeast Texas early this morning, we’re left with widespread light to moderate rain for the morning commute. Once the leading edge clears your neighborhood, a steady rain with occasional rumbles of thunder will continue for several hours. There’s also the chance another wave of storms move into the region just before lunchtime, where gusty winds and heavy rains could be potential impacts. The we should be mostly rain-free sky in the afternoon. Temperature wise, temperatures will start in the mid-upper 60s and climb into the low 80s today one the rain moves out.

It’s been so stormy lately! Any drier weather on the way?

In fact, yes! While a few storms are possible Thursday, generally a warmer and drier weather pattern is settling in for this weekend. Friday we could see high temperatures climb into the 90s and stay there through the weekend.

Any more 90-degree days on the way?

Yes. After our rain-cooled Wednesday, temperatures will trend up toward 90 quickly The last weekend of May is looking hotter with highs at or near 90 degrees. And even if the thermometer doesn’t hit 90 Saturday or Sunday, it’ll certainly feel like it with heat index values in the low-mid 90s each day.

Hurricane season starts in less than a week. Is there anything brewing out there?

Nope! No activity is expected in the next 7 days across the Atlantic, but we will be watching a lot of moisture pile up near a stalled out front during the first week of June.
