The clouds have finished closing in over Houston on Sunday night. Monday now reads a touch warmer and drier in the late feed - 82.6 degrees with a 4 percent rain chance - while Election Day stays exactly where the evening put it: 80.5 degrees and the week's one serious rain day.
HOUSTON - Houston stood at 73.2 degrees under fully overcast skies (code 3) at 11 p.m. on Sunday, feeling like 77.6, according to the station's live weather feed - the cloud deck complete after a partly cloudy 9 p.m. read, at the end of a Sunday that peaked at 83.1 with a low of 70.1.
Monday, the last day before the election, has firmed up as the week's driest day: overcast (code 3), a high of 82.6 - nudged up from 81.9 in the 9 p.m. read - a low of 69.4, and the rain chance trimmed to 4 percent.
Tuesday - Election Day - has not moved. The feed holds Tuesday's high at 80.5 with a low of 69.9, a rain code (53) and an 84 percent rain chance, still the week's one serious rain day by a wide margin, on the day Harris County's polls are open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Voters who have not yet cast a ballot are the audience for the morning updates: the rain is a Tuesday story, not a Monday one.
Behind it, the week stays settled: Wednesday is overcast at 79.5 and 65.1 with an 18 percent rain chance, Thursday is the week's one clear day (code 0) at 83.1 and 65.1, Friday is overcast at 82.8 and 68.8, and Saturday carries a thunderstorm code (95) at 82 and 70.3 with a 14 percent rain chance. No day after Tuesday carries a rain chance above 18 percent.
