Houston, Texas – Rain returns to southeast Texas this weekend, and Houston drivers should watch for wet roads and possible thunderstorms by late Saturday.

According to the National Weather Service, a 30% chance of showers and thunderstorms is expected after 4 p.m. Saturday, with highs near 91°F and heat index values climbing into the upper 90s. Winds from the southeast may increase up to 10 mph, and storms could impact travel on major routes like I-45 and I-69, especially into the early evening.

While most of Saturday will stay partly sunny, late-day plans may be disrupted by spotty downpours and thunder. If you’re heading outdoors, stay weather-aware and monitor alerts, especially with electrical storms possible. Sunday’s outlook brings more widespread rain chances — a 70% chance of showers and thunderstorms is in place, especially after 3 p.m. Hazy skies will also limit visibility during morning hours.

Humidity will remain high across the weekend and into early next week, with overnight lows stuck around 77°F and daytime highs in the 90–94°F range. No relief from the summer heat is expected heading into the Fourth of July week.

What’s next? A repeat pattern of afternoon storms and summer heat continues into midweek — plan ahead for July 4th as similar conditions could persist.
