HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Cooler and cloudy conditions have settled in for the weekend with seasonably cool weather lasting through next week too.
Temperatures Saturday evening have really dropped behind this cold front and are 20 to 30 degrees cold than this time yesterday. And temps will continue to fall form the low 50s to low 0s overnight with winds staying somewhat gusty, around 20 to 25 mph. These gusts should die down by sunrise Sunday just before the Chevron Houston Marathon gets going Sunday morning. Sunday will remain cool and cloudy with a northerly breeze and highs only climbing into the low 60s.
How cold will it be for the Chevron Houston Marathon?
It will be chilly, but not as bitter cold as we’ve seen in recent years. Temperatures at the start of the marathon will be in the low-to-mid 40s with a light north wind around 5-10 mph. The clouds should remain widespread, preventing temperatures from warming out of the 50s during the big race.
How long does the cold weather stick around?
For all of next week! It will remain mostly cloudy through Tuesday, then sunshine returns Wednesday. We are expecting mostly seasonal temperatures with highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s most days next week.
Are any other freezes on the horizon?
We have no freezes in our 10 day forecast, but there’s still a lot winter left to get more freezing weather. In fact, signals are growing that a colder pattern will develop across Canada and the United States during the second half of January.
