WATCHING THE TROPICS <\/p>\nRECORD HEAT ON WEDNESDAY <\/p>\n
HOUSTON – It\u2019s been another unseasonably hot September day, with temperatures climbing into the upper 90s. A few showers and thunderstorms are possible through early evening, but most areas stay dry. Yesterday’s high of 99\u00b0 was 1\u00b0 away from the record high of 100, and we set a new record high today of 99 in Houston. Today\u2019s previous record high was 97 in 2023.<\/p>\n
A LITTLE RELIEF ON THE WAY <\/p>\n
A weak boundary arrives late this week and should knock down humidity somewhat Friday. Don\u2019t expect a real fall cooldown, but temperatures could drop to the upper 60s in spots early Friday and Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
STORMS NEXT WEEK <\/p>\n
The weekend still looks warm, but the bigger change comes early next week as rain chances return and temperatures trend lower. A decent cold front could move through by Tuesday\/Wednesday. The chance for scattered storms will increase during this timeframe with cooler temperatures building in behind the front.<\/p>\n
WATCHING THE TROPICS <\/p>\n
There are a few areas to watch in the Atlantic basin. Fay had fallen apart in the middle of the Atlantic on Tuesday.\u00a0But has regained tropical characteristics and is a tropical depression again. It is no threat to land as it drifts to the west. Another area near the west coast of Africa has a medium 50% chance to turn into a tropical depression or tropical storm over the next week. The next name on the list is Gonzalo.\u00a0Neither of these systems should be a threat to Texas.<\/p>\n
