Houston Weather Wednesday Evening: 70 Degrees and the Day's High Climbed to 70.7 - Thursday Clears to 73.4, Friday Holds 79.4, Weekend Rain Up to 57 Percent
The evening feed rewrites Thursday - the fog code is gone, replaced by overcast and a high raised nearly two degrees - keeps Friday as the week's warm, dry day, and raises both Sunday and Monday rain chances to 57 percent.
Houston's rainy Veterans Day is ending warmer than any of the day's files promised. At the evening read the station's weather feed showed 70.0 degrees, feeling like 74.8, under overcast skies, with Wednesday's high revised up to 70.7 - nearly two degrees above the afternoon file's 68.8 - a low of 59.3 and the day's 84 percent precipitation chance and rain code unchanged from the morning.
Thursday is the day that changed. The afternoon file carried a fog code for Thursday morning; the evening feed clears it to plain overcast, raises the high from 71.5 to 73.4, sets the low at 56.7 and keeps the precipitation chance at zero. Friday holds its position as the week's payoff day - overcast, dry, a high of 79.4 and a notably cooler low of 51.1, the coldest night in the seven-day run.
The weekend's rain odds rose in this read. Saturday still codes for drizzle with a high of 70.3, a warm low of 60.1 and only an 8 percent precipitation chance, but Sunday's chance climbed from 54 to 57 percent at a high of 69.7, and Monday's climbed from 47 to 57 percent at the same 69.7 - the two-day wet stretch at the end of the week now reads as more likely than not on both days. Tuesday then clears to a sunny code and 70.3 with a 4 percent chance.
For tonight: a mild, drying evening in the upper 60s after the day's rain, no fog caution left in Thursday's file, and a two-day dry window - Thursday and Friday - before the weekend's rising rain chances arrive.
