Allergy woes continue but the weather remains nice


HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — A weak front will blow in a fresh round of dry air Friday morning. You probably won’t notice much of a different save a high temperature a few degrees lower than Thursday’s. This front will keep nice weather going through the weekend as we await the arrival of another weak front on Sunday.

One downside to the fronts blowing in this nice weather is that we have to endure extremely high levels of ragweed pollen. Ragweed thrives in temperatures above 50 degrees, and it takes a freeze to finally kill off the weed. Our first freeze typically doesn’t occur until around the first week of December.

Another front is expected to move in Sunday. Moisture will be limited, so aside from a few extra clouds, you shouldn’t notice much of a change This front will bring more pleasant weather Monday through Wednesday. Tropical moisture gathering over the northwest Caribbean Sea could reach us toward the end of next week, bringing back muggy air more typical for Houston.
