HOUSTON, Texas – A faint haze and dew-slick streets greeted early commuters across Southeast Texas this morning, signaling another round of dense fog forming before sunrise. Drivers along I-45 and Beltway 8 should expect reduced visibility through early morning, especially near low-lying areas and bridges. The air feels almost springlike for early November, but subtle changes later this week hint at a shift toward cooler, more seasonable air.
According to the National Weather Service in Houston/Galveston, morning fog will clear quickly under strong sunshine, allowing temperatures to soar into the low 80s by Thursday and mid-80s Friday. A light southeast breeze keeps humidity high, and the warmth lingers just long enough for residents to enjoy late-fall yard work, outdoor lunches, or early holiday decorating before the next front slides through late in the weekend.
By Saturday night into Sunday, a weak boundary drops south through the region, pulling in drier air and cooler mornings near 50 degrees. The crisp air won’t be strong enough for a frost this far south, but it marks the first hint of the season’s turn. Farther north, colder air is already taking hold from Kansas to the Great Lakes, where snow showers are beginning to appear—a sign that Texas may not stay mild for long.
For now, Houstonians can expect near-perfect weather for Veterans Day parades and early travel next week. Those planning longer drives north should prepare for sharper temperature drops and possible early winter conditions along the I-30 and I-40 corridors.
