Houston Rodeo set to kickoff with warm, humid, and foggy weather

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Warm, humid Gulf air is here and here to stay for awhile. Eventually we’ll get a chance of rain out of all this humid air, but that won’t occur until the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is well underway.

A weak cool front will roll into the area overnight. Areas south of the front may experience dense fog both Friday and Saturday mornings.

How is the weather looking for the Rodeo Cookoff and the Rodeo Parade?

Warm and humid! It should feel okay in the evenings for the BBQ Cookoff, but it will be humid. For the parade on Saturday, we expect a lot of sunshine with temperatures warming from the upper 60s to the upper 70s during the parade. Thankfully all of the opening festivities should be rain-free!

But we need the rain. When do we have a chance for some?

We foresee the pattern changing around the middle of next week to allow Pacific storm systems to get closer to Texas and bring in some chances of showers and thunderstorms. For now we have rain chances low at just 20-30%, but there is room for the rain chance to rise, especially around the first weekend of our local spring break.

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.
