HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Another round of summertime storms is expected Monday with the coastal sea breeze developing and pushing north into the afternoon.
Monday will be start off sunny and muggy with our sea breeze bringing us the chance for some scattered showers and storms across Southeast Texas. A few light showers are possible along the coast in the morning before more scattered showers and storms develop for the afternoon. Locally heavy rainfall, thunder and lightning are possible impacts we’ll see from this next round of storms. High temperatures will climb into the low-mid 90s Monday, and if you get some afternoon rain, those showers will cool you off into the low-mid 80s.
Is there any triple-digit heat in the forecast?
Not at this time. In fact, we still haven’t hit 100 so far this summer! Next week the rain faucet should turn off for at least a few days, which should push temperatures back into the upper 90s but still shy of the triple digits by week’s end.
Seems like it’s been pretty rainy lately… any drier weather on the way?
It definitely has been rainy! The combination of our summertime heat and humidity has really lead the way for a daily rain chance so far this summer. For July, we’ve picked up just about 2 inches of rain so far at Bush Intercontinental, which is over half an inch higher than what we typically see by now in the month of July.
