Storms are expected to move into Houston\u00a0and Southeast Texas late Saturday and overnight<\/a>, bringing a round of heavy rainfall before an associated cold front produces a sharp drop in temperatures by Sunday.\u00a0While severe weather isn\u2019t expected, a few storms may produce brief downpours and gusty winds, with localized flooding possible in spots.<\/p>\n

Morning: Saturday starts warm and muggy with mostly cloudy skies. A few showers or thunderstorms might develop well north of Houston, but most of the metro area will stay dry through late morning as temperatures climb through the 70s.<\/p>\n

Afternoon: Most of Southeast Texas remains rain-free through the afternoon despite the approaching front. Highs reach the mid-80s, with increasing clouds and humidity setting the stage for storms later in the day.<\/p>\n

Evening: Rain chances begin to edge up between 6 and 8 p.m. as scattered showers approach. Storms will be limited at first, but the weather will continue to be more unsettled. The High-Resolution Rapid Refresh forecast model shows showers developing north of Houston in the Brazos Valley and in East Texas around this time.<\/p>\n

Late night into early Sunday: The main round of storms arrives overnight, with a narrow line moving across the region between about 10 p.m. and 4 a.m. This will be the period with the highest likelihood of rain. A few storms might produce gusty winds and brief heavy downpours. Localized flooding is the primary concern overnight, especially in low-lying spots or paved areas with poor drainage<\/a>. Most locations will pick up between a half-inch and 1.5 inches of rain, with higher totals possible north of Interstate 10.<\/p>\n

The High-Resolution Rapid Refresh forecast model again shows a heavy band of storms stretched across Southeast Texas, affecting areas from the upper Rio Grande Valley, San Antonio, Houston and Beaumont\u00a0around this time.<\/p>\n

By Sunday morning, the front will be east of the area, and weather will begin to improve. A\u00a0few lingering showers<\/a> might persist early, especially closer to the coast, but skies should gradually clear through the day. Highs will only reach the upper 60s to low 70s.<\/p>\n

Breezy weather is expected behind the front, particularly along the coast, before winds ease Sunday night. Overnight lows will drop into the mid-50s to low 60s.<\/p>\n

The cooler pattern continues into Monday with peak daytime temperatures again in the upper 60s to low 70s, but this break from unseasonable heat will be short-lived. Southerly winds return late Monday, allowing temperatures and humidity to build again through midweek, along with periodic rain chances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Storms are expected to move into Houston\u00a0and Southeast Texas late Saturday and overnight, bringing a round of heavy…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":256591,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[56,58,57],"class_list":{"0":"post-256590","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-houston","8":"tag-houston","9":"tag-houston-headlines","10":"tag-houston-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256590","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=256590"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256590\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/256591"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=256590"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=256590"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=256590"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
