A cold front is set to bring thunderstorms overnight in Southeast Texas, marking a significant change from the record warm days that have dominated our region lately. As the front moves through, it will push behind a mass of cool air, bringing chilly temperatures and gusty winds into play.
By sunrise on Saturday, expect the mercury to dip into the 50s as the north wind blows in, with some areas potentially seeing even colder conditions. The storm system that follows the cold front will be the dominant feature throughout the day, producing a mix of clouds and rain showers.
The timing couldn't be worse for runners participating in the Chevron Houston Marathon, which is scheduled to take place on Saturday. Temperatures at the starting line are expected to be in the low-to-mid 40s, with light winds around 5mph. While it won't be as bitter cold as previous years, the cloudy skies will keep temperatures stuck in the 50s all day.
But don't worry - the cold weather isn't going anywhere anytime soon. A prolonged period of mostly cloudy skies is expected to stick around through Tuesday, before sunshine returns on Wednesday. Temperatures are forecasted to remain seasonal throughout next week, with highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s most days.
In terms of freezes, there's currently no indication that any significant cold snaps will impact our area within the next 10 days. However, signals are emerging that a colder pattern may develop across Canada and the United States later this month, potentially bringing more winter weather to the region.
