Veterans Day cold front brings rain, major weather change

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — A major weather change is coming Friday, but first we have one more warm, humid day to get through.

Another round of fog is likely overnight, and it could get dense at times. Temperatures will drop into the mid 60s, about 10 degrees warmer than average. High temperatures will similarly run about 10 degrees above average and peak in the low-to-mid 80s. The sky will become partly cloudy by the afternoon with only a stray shower possible.

What can we expect from the cold front on Veterans Day?

This front should pass through mostly dry at first, but widespread showers and thunderstorms will develop behind the front, especially in the afternoon and evening. We’ve increased your rain chance to 60%. This front will usher in a period of sweater weather that will last through all of next week. Disturbances blowing over the top of the cold air will also bring more opportunities for rain, especially on Monday. Lows will be in the 40s with highs in the 50s and 60s.
