Houston, TX — Gray skies, damp air and increasing rain chances are setting up a changing November weather pattern across Southeast Texas. Houston could see showers Sunday and Monday, with temperatures falling nearly 10 degrees before warmer conditions return.
The shift comes as meteorologists monitor a separate, potentially heavy rainfall event across southern Texas.
According to the National Weather Service, Houston Hobby Airport reported 66 degrees early Saturday, with partly cloudy skies and calm winds.
Temperatures should climb to 78 degrees Saturday afternoon under mostly cloudy skies. However, rain chances begin increasing after 9 p.m., reaching 20%.
Sunday Monday: 40% Rain Chance, Cooler Temperatures Sunday brings a noticeable change as cloud cover increases and temperatures struggle to reach 70 degrees.
The National Weather Service places Houston's shower probability at 40%, mainly during the afternoon.
Northeast winds of 5 to 10 mph could add a cooler feel, especially near open areas and waterfront communities.
Drivers traveling I 45, I 10 and Loop 610 should watch for wet pavement if showers develop.
Sunday evening maintains a 30% shower chance, with temperatures settling near 60 degrees.
Monday continues the unsettled pattern.
Another 40% chance of showers accompanies mostly cloudy skies and an afternoon high near 69 degrees.
Keep umbrellas nearby, particularly during outdoor errands and afternoon travel.
Southern Texas Flood Threat: Is Houston Included? The Weather Prediction Center is monitoring a developing heavy rainfall threat farther south.
An approaching upper level system could produce several inches of rain across portions of southern Texas Sunday into Monday.
Federal forecasters have identified a slight risk of excessive rainfall in that region.
However, Houston's local forecast does not currently indicate comparable rainfall totals or a widespread flooding event.
The distinction matters for residents following statewide weather headlines.
No specific tornado threat is identified for Houston in the supplied forecast, although residents should continue monitoring official updates.
Tuesday Wednesday: Sunshine and 75 Degrees Return By Tuesday, Houston temperatures rebound toward 75 degrees.
A slight 20% chance of afternoon showers remains, but partly sunny skies should provide more opportunities for outdoor activities.
Veterans Day, Wednesday, also reaches approximately 75 degrees, with another slight shower chance.
Looking toward Thanksgiving, colder weather remains possible as seasonal patterns evolve. However, no specific Houston freeze or snow event is indicated.
For now, residents should prepare for intermittent showers rather than widespread severe weather
