Houston Weather: Cold Fronts, Warm-Ups, and Stormy Outlook

After a pleasant Sunday, Houston is experiencing a brief taste of fall before temperatures climb again. The initial cold front brought dry air, leading to cooler temperatures overnight. However, a southeasterly flow will return, bringing muggier conditions. The front arriving on Tuesday will bring a chance of scattered thunderstorms, particularly south of the city. Looking further ahead, a stalling front late in the week may bring more substantial rainfall. With 152 counties in Texas currently under burn bans, any rainfall will be welcome, but caution is still advised regarding activities that could cause sparks.

Tuesday afternoon and potentially late in the week (Friday to Sunday).

The initial cool temperatures will be brief, with a warm-up expected on Monday. A more significant cool-down should occur on Wednesday after Tuesday's front.

Houston residents should prepare for a fluctuating week of weather. Enjoy the cool Monday morning, but be ready for a quick warm-up. Keep an umbrella handy for Tuesday afternoon, and stay informed about potential storm developments later in the week. Be mindful of the burn ban and avoid activities that could cause fires until significant rain arrives.
