We’re also watching an increase in fall allergies, so if you suffer from ragweed pollen, for example, the next few days could still be challenging, despite the beautiful weather outside.

Houston’s Pollen Forecast

A windy day could make allergies worse by stirring up and spreading pollen, dust and other allergens in the air. So keep that in mind as you plan your day!

As we round into the weekend forecast, we’ll start to see a little more humidity and a small chance for rain moves back in.

Nothing too serious, however, a weak Gulf disturbance does look to bring in some more widespread rain chances on Sunday and Monday mainly east of SE Texas.If you are headed to gulf facing beaches this weekend keep in mind there is a rip current risk because of the persistent and strong easterly wind.

Through Saturday NightTropical outlook:

We’re tracking an area of low pressure near the central and northwestern Bahamas which is producing disorganized showers. We’ll track strong upper-level winds that should prevent significant development with the lows; however, we will continue to watch for heavy rainfall and possible flooding in portions of Florida and the Bahamas. 10% formation chance in the next 48 hours/10 days.
We’re watching a tropical wave near the coast of Africa which is producing a broad area of disorganized thunderstorms. A tropical depression could form near Lesser Antilles by next week. 50%formation chance by next week.

An area of low pressure may form and push NW into the Gulf into the coming week
