Thursday’s Forecast:
It’ll be another hot, humid, and hazy day across SE Texas.
Hot with isolated showers chances
There is a slight chance of isolated showers in the afternoon and evening, but the best rain remains west and north of Southeast Texas.
So, if you are traveling, you could encounter wet roads the closer you get to San Antonio, Austin, and DFW.
Early Thursday morning, our radar got some light rain showers sneaking in around Lake Livingston, so we could see some flare-ups this afternoon.
Showers and storms greatest away from HoustonSaharan Dust is back!
Saharan dust continues to linger across SE Texas, but by Monday, dust plumes will take a pause.
Saharan dust lingers through the weekend before moving out off early week
The next dense plume arrives late next week and may miss SE Texas. The dense plum keeps skies milky and drops air quality due to high levels of particulate matter that can lead to respiratory irritation.
Next Thursday Saharan dust returns to the Gulf
Fourth of July Weekend:
Hot, hazy, and certainly humid will be the story for our holiday weekend. The Saharan dust will take over the skies, dry out most of our rain chances.

Be prepared for temps in the mid to upper 90’s but the skies should be clear for fireworks Friday night!
Tracking the tropics:
In the tropics, all is quiet across the Gulf, with the leftovers of Barry still bringing some much needed rain to parts of south Texas.
We’re also watching a boundary just east of New Orleans that has a 40% chance of development over the next seven days. Regardless, parts of Florida will likely see heavy rain for the next few days.
Tropical Outlook (Copyright 2025 by KPRC Click2Houston – All rights reserved.)
Remember, the Atlantic hurricane season lasts through November. Here in SE Texas, we see the tropical season peak in September, but we can see a storm anytime from now through the fall. Last year, Hurricane Beryl made landfall early in the morning on July 8th.
