Sunshine returns Monday. Another cool front expected on Wednesday

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Get ready for some chilly temperatures to start off your Monday. With the sky clearing out, we will have ideal conditions for cooling. Temperatures will start off in the upper 40s, so you’ll want a jacket if you’re out and about around sunrise.

Monday afternoon should be lovely with sunshine, low humidity, and pleasant highs in the mid 70s. The wind will start off from the northeast and shift to the southeast. That means Gulf moisture will quickly blow back in clouds and humid air Monday night.

When will this oak pollen go away?!
