Houston Overnight: 66.9 and Overcast, Sliding Toward a 63.8 Low - and Election Day's Thunderstorm Chance Still Leads the Week at 55 Percent
The overnight feed has Houston in the upper 60s under a full cloud deck, on its way to the coolest low of the week - with a hot Halloween weekend ahead and the week's one real storm signal parked on Election Day.
HOUSTON - Overnight Houston sits at 66.9 degrees under an overcast sky, feeling like 70.5, and the temperature is still sliding: the station's live Open-Meteo feed puts this morning's low at 63.8, the coolest reading of the week, before Thursday tops out at 77.9 with just a 3 percent rain chance under the same cloud deck.
The weekend is where the heat returns. Friday has actually been trimmed in the latest feed - 77.4 and overcast, down from the 79-to-80 range Wednesday's outlooks carried - before Saturday jumps to 87.8 with showers (code 80) at a 38 percent chance for Halloween, Sunday reaches 88.7 and Monday 88.8, both mostly dry. Nothing in the near term suggests Thursday or Friday needs an umbrella; Saturday evening is the one window worth a costume-plan look.
The week's headline remains Tuesday - Election Day - when the feed carries a thunderstorm code (95) with the high falling back to 76.4 and the rain chance at 55 percent, the highest of the seven days. Wednesday behind it clears to a sunny 76.4. Voters who can still choose their day have two early-voting days left, Thursday and Friday, both dry on this feed; Election Day itself is the wet one.
