Chilly mornings with pleasant afternoons on tap for SE Texas

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — We started off cold Monday with many cities dropping to or at below freezing. Houston stayed just above freezing at 33 degrees. Tuesday will also start off cold, but we are expecting to stay above freezing with lows in the low to mid-40s. Partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid-60s are expected Tuesday afternoon.

How long will the cold weather stick around?

After our near-freezing Monday morning, temperatures will quickly rebound into seasonal territory for the rest of next week. That means you can generally expect lows in the 40s and highs in the 60s.

When’s our next chance for rain?

A pattern change arrives later in the week that will usher in Houston’s next best rain chance on Friday. The timing and placement of any showers or storms, and their intensity, is still dependent on a few factors but right now Friday looks to be our best shot at some widespread rain for southeast Texas. Showers could linger into Saturday.
