HOUSTON<\/strong> – Rain chances will be increasing heading into Friday and the weekend.<\/p>\n Highs in the upper 90s with a few storms <\/p>\n After hitting highs that ranged from 96 to 101 on Wednesday and today, we’ll head for the mid and upper 90s again, but with the addition of pop-up afternoon storms.\u00a0<\/p>\n Due to the heat island that forms over the city, sometimes these storms can form inside the Beltway and might hang around through the afternoon rush.\u00a0<\/p>\n It’s also possible that they affect other areas as some of our newer model runs have been turning more aggressive with rain today.<\/p>\n Increasing rain late this week <\/p>\n Friday will also bring a decent chance for scattered afternoon storms, then we have a tricky weekend forecast.\u00a0<\/p>\n A cold front will approach, then stall, and it’s a challenge as to how close to Houston the front will stall.\u00a0<\/p>\n For now, count on muggy air and a good chance for showers and a few storms this weekend.<\/p>\n 7-Day Forecast So far this hurricane season, Saharan dust has dominated across the Atlantic resulting in a lack of many strong tropical waves and a quiet pattern. In the short-term, no storms are expected, but as we head into August and especially mid-August, expect a more active tropical pattern for the Caribbean, Gulf and Atlantic. September is typically the busiest month of the Atlantic basin hurricane season.<\/p>\n So far this hurricane season, Saharan dust has dominated across the Atlantic, resulting in a lack of many strong tropical waves and a quiet pattern.\u00a0<\/p>\n In the short-term, no storms are expected, but as we head into August and especially mid-August, expect a more active tropical pattern.<\/p>\n The Source:<\/b> Information above from Your Gulf Coast Weather Authority.\u00a0<\/p>\n Weather<\/a>Houston<\/a>News<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"HOUSTON – Rain chances will be increasing heading into Friday and the weekend.
