Weekend Weather Outlook
**Saturday**: While clouds and humidity are increasing, Saturday remains a great day for outdoor activities. Highs will reach the upper 70s, with only a 10% chance of rain. Though it won’t be as picture-perfect as Friday, the weather should stay dry across most areas.
**Sunday**: Expect a shift as the Gulf breeze strengthens, bringing muggy conditions, higher rain chances, and warmer temperatures. Widespread clouds will return, accompanied by a 40% chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms. Morning temperatures will hover around 70°F, with afternoon highs climbing into the low 80s.
Next Storm System and Severe Weather Potential
A **stormy Pacific cold front** is set to arrive Monday, bringing a risk of severe weather. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible Monday morning, with a line of storms expected to move through Southeast Texas by the afternoon. These storms could produce gusty winds and severe weather, especially in areas north of Houston.
**Travel Reminder**: If you’re heading to Dallas for the Texans vs. Cowboys Monday Night Football game, be mindful of stormy conditions. You can catch the game live on ABC13.
Upcoming Cool Down
A bigger cool-down is still on track for next week, but you’ll need to wait until **Wednesday** to really feel it. After Monday’s cold front, humidity will start to drop Tuesday. By Wednesday, a brisk Canadian cold front will bring cooler air, with lows in the 40s and highs in the 60s. While it may not be as cold as some earlier predictions suggested, it’s shaping up to be a delightful stretch of fall weather for the second half of the week.
