HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — We are hitting the weather jackpot the next couple of days! It will get warmer and muggier later in the week as sea fog returns ahead of our next cool front.
Temperatures this morning have fallen into upper 40s and low 50s under a mostly clear sky, though we’re monitoring some low-level clouds and pockets of fog this morning too. Sunshine will break through the morning clouds, leading to highs just above 70, again close to our seasonal average of 68 degrees.
We’ll have similar weather on Tuesday, then a surge of mild Gulf air will push highs above 80 Wednesday and Thursday.
Any more severe weather on the horizon?
Not for the next 10 days! This week is looking quiet with cool mornings and mild afternoons until we get to the second half of the week when it turns warm and humid. Our next cool front and potential rain maker arrives around Saturday, but this one will only produce a small chance of rain and no severe weather.
What else can we expect this week?
We are anticipating a warm up this week that will send highs into the 80s by Wednesday. This warmer pattern will also allow for some fog to develop each morning this week, where by Thursday and Friday pockets of thick sea fog could linger long the coast.
Could we get another freeze or frost this season?
Sure, but we likely have to wait the end of February or beginning of March for our next chance of freezing weather if it were to occur. On average, Houston’s last freeze occurs around Valentine’s Day with the last frost the first week of March.
