Houston, Texas – Scattered thunderstorms could roll through Houston by late Friday morning, bringing a 50% chance of rain and the risk of heavy downpours as temperatures climb toward 88°F.
According to the National Weather Service in Houston, most storm activity is expected after 8 a.m. Friday, with calm morning winds shifting north and then south by the afternoon. While most rainfall amounts will stay under a tenth of an inch, isolated storms could bring locally heavier bursts.
Friday night will see lingering storm chances (20%), especially before midnight, with lows around 73°F. Heading into the weekend, conditions will gradually improve. Saturday looks partly sunny with a high near 87°F, and only minimal storm risk by Sunday when highs return to the low 90s.
City crews and emergency managers urge residents to avoid flood-prone roads during downpours, keep phones charged, and secure outdoor items ahead of gusty winds. Commuters should expect brief delays during Friday’s morning and evening rush due to isolated storms.
While rain chances decrease after Monday, humidity and temperatures remain high across southeast Texas. The next major update is expected Friday morning as conditions develop.
