Houston Weather Tuesday Evening: 66.2 Degrees and Cooling - Wednesday's Heavy Rain Is Now Coded at 59 Percent, Then 82 Thursday
The day peaked and turned. Wednesday's heavy-rain code now carries the week's highest rain chance, and Thursday's dry 82 is still the reward behind it.
Houston stood at 66.2 degrees, feeling like 67.3, under an overcast code 3 at the station's 5 p.m. check of its live Open-Meteo feed - down from the 73-degree afternoon high on a Tuesday coded 53, moderate drizzle, with a high of 73.4, a low of 58.8 and a precipitation chance that rose to 31 percent by evening.
Wednesday is now the week's certain wet day. It stays coded 65, heavy rain, at a high of 70.7 and a low of 63.3, but its precipitation chance climbed from 46 percent at midday to 59 percent this evening - the highest chance on the seven-day board. Anyone with Wednesday plans should expect a genuinely rainy day, not a passing shower.
Thursday and Friday remain the dry break: Thursday coded 3 at 82.1 degrees with a 1 percent rain chance, Friday the same code at 80.9 with none. Saturday eases to 76.1 under code 82 with a 10 percent chance, and Sunday and Monday cool to 65.5 and 65.6 with chances of 36 and 33 percent.
For the Tuesday evening drive, conditions are mild and mostly dry near 66 degrees. The Weather Desk's next cadence file follows against this same live feed, with Wednesday's heavy rain the story to watch.
