Houston, get ready for a stretch of wet weather. Starting Saturday, rain showers are expected to roll in and stick around through Tuesday. While it won’t be a total downpour the whole time, scattered showers could make things soggy, so it’s a good idea to keep an umbrella handy.
What’s in the Forecast?
- Saturday: Showers will start popping up in the afternoon, with the possibility of heavier rain later in the day.
- Sunday Through Tuesday: Off-and-on rain will continue, with scattered showers throughout the days. No major flooding is expected, but areas that drain poorly might see some minor puddles after heavier rain.
- Temperatures: Highs will stay in the upper 60s to low 70s, so at least it won’t be chilly.
How Much Rain Are We Talking?
- Most areas are likely to see 1 to 2 inches of rain by the time Tuesday rolls around. A few spots could pick up a little more, especially during heavier showers or isolated storms.
How to Stay Prepared
- Drive Safely: Wet roads can get slick quickly, so take your time and give yourself a little extra room while driving.
- Have a Backup Plan: If you’ve got outdoor plans, be ready to move them indoors or adjust, since showers could pop up without much warning.
- Keep an Eye on the Weather: Stay updated with the forecast or check the radar regularly to see where the rain is heading.
Looking Ahead
The rain should start clearing out by midweek, with drier skies and slightly cooler temperatures moving in after Tuesday. Until then, expect clouds and occasional showers to dominate the forecast.
Final Thoughts
Houston, it’s going to be a rainy few days, but it won’t be nonstop. Keep an eye on the skies, stay cautious on wet roads, and plan ahead for the showers. You’ve got this—just don’t forget your rain gear!
Stay safe, stay dry, and have a great weekend!
