Houston Tuesday Evening Weather: Skies Begin to Clear at 74, and Halloween's Rain Chance Climbs to 30 Percent
After a full day under unbroken grey, Houston's live feed has broken to partly cloudy at 74.4 degrees on Tuesday evening - and the same feed has lifted Halloween Saturday's rain chance to 30 percent, the wettest slot of the week.
Houston's grey Tuesday is finally breaking. The station's live Open-Meteo feed read 74.4 degrees at the evening check, feeling like 79, with the sky code down to partly cloudy - the first clearing after a day that ran overcast from morning to mid-afternoon. Tuesday closes at a high of 74.8 and a low of 64.1 tonight, with the day's precipitation chance having peaked at 28 percent.
The middle of the week is the dry stretch. Wednesday is overcast at 79.6 degrees with a low of 66.5 and an 11 percent rain chance. Thursday remains the week's cleanest day: overcast, 83.1 degrees, a low of 62.5 and a rain chance down to 2 percent. Friday warms to 82.2 with a low of 70.4 - and its rain chance has risen to 17 percent, up from 11 on the afternoon feed.
The weekend change is the one to plan around. Halloween Saturday is warm and overcast at 85.6 degrees with a low of 72.5, and its rain chance has climbed to 30 percent - up from 25 percent this afternoon and now the wettest single slot on the seven-day feed, squarely over trick-or-treat hours. Sunday is still the week's hottest day at 89.9 degrees with only a 4 percent rain chance, and Monday holds at 89.3 with its rain chance now up to 26 percent. The Weather Desk files its next regular update Wednesday at 05:00, and Saturday's slot will lead it until the Halloween picture settles.
