Houston, TX – Commuters and residents across Houston and Southeast Texas should expect another hot and humid day Friday, with temperatures climbing into the low to mid-90s and a chance for late-day storms.
According to the National Weather Service Houston-Galveston office, conditions will mirror Thursday’s weather, with highs ranging between 92 and 95 degrees across much of the metro area. Areas along the Gulf Coast could feel slightly warmer due to humidity, with heat index values pushing even higher.
Forecasters said overnight temperatures will provide limited relief, with lows dropping into the upper 60s to low 70s inland, and closer to 80 degrees along coastal communities like Galveston.
Isolated showers and thunderstorms may develop Friday afternoon into the evening, potentially disrupting outdoor activities or evening commutes. While rainfall is expected to remain scattered, brief downpours and lightning could affect some neighborhoods.
The weather service advised residents to stay alert for changing conditions, keep hydrated during the afternoon heat, and allow extra travel time in case storms slow traffic later in the day.
This hot and unsettled pattern is expected to persist through the weekend.
