The hot and steamy pattern continues in Houston.
Tuesday’s Forecast
Tuesday will be another dangerously hot afternoon.
Forecast highs are expected to climb to 99 degrees Tuesday and up to 100 degrees by Wednesday. These readings land just shy of the all-time record for this date, which was 101 degrees back in 2018. Temperatures reached 98 degrees Monday, and there’s no reason to believe things will cool down just yet.
The humidity isn’t backing off either, and the heat index looks locked in from 103 to 106 every afternoon through Friday.
High pressure dominates through Thursday, keeping skies dry and conditions hot.
While Houston currently isn’t under a heat advisory, some of the hottest conditions are set to impact areas just to the east, including Beaumont and Port Arthur. Over there, heat advisories are posted and heat index values could peak as high as 108 degrees this afternoon.
In Houston, the heat index should reach 104 to 106 degrees—so even without an official advisory, it’s important to stay cool and hydrated.
Late Week Rain Chances:
As the week winds down, the remnants of the storm system we were tracking last week that caused heavy rain in Louisiana make a comeback. It’s in the Midwest now. By midweek, it’s back in the Gulf.
It may get steered back toward Houston and Southeast Texas by Friday and Saturday.

Its proximity to land makes it tough for the disturbance to strengthen into a tropical system, but rain and thunderstorms are a good possibility.
If it can move over water, which it couldn’t do last week, then it could strengthen. We will watch this carefully for you. Right now, there’s a 40% chance of thunderstorms from Friday into Saturday.
Tracking rain in the Gulf at the end of the week (Copyright 2025 by KPRC Click2Houston – All rights reserved.)Tracking the tropics:
There is one area in the Atlantic we’re tracking. This system became a watch area last Friday, but as of now, chances for development have dropped from 20% down to 10%. This is going to have a tough time forming because of how far south it is. And increasing wind shear is expected to disrupt it as it edges northward. This means we may not be watching it much longer. It may not survive the next few days.

Your 10-Day Forecast:
Highs in the upper 90s and muggy lows in the upper 70s to 80 degrees are sticking around all week. There’s no serious shift in the heat until those late-week rain chances, so be sure to take care during these intense afternoons.
