Houston Weather Wednesday Late Night: 67.3 Degrees - and Friday's High Has Been Cut From 79.6 to 75.2 While the Weekend Rain Chance Rises to 63 Percent
Wednesday's rainy holiday is done at 72.7. Thursday stays clear at 73.2, but the Friday the desk promised this evening is gone - the feed now peaks the week at 75.2 - and Sunday and Monday both carry a 63 percent rain chance.
Houston's rainy Veterans Day ended the way it spent the day - revising itself. At the late-night read, the station's weather feed showed 67.3 degrees, feeling like 71.8, under overcast skies, with Wednesday closing at a high of 72.7, a low of 59.3 and the 84 percent precipitation chance that defined the holiday. Nothing about Wednesday is a forecast anymore; those are the day's final numbers.
Thursday holds. The feed keeps Thursday clear - a clear-sky code - with a high of 73.2 and no precipitation chance, though the morning low has been revised warmer, from 56.7 to 58.1. It remains the driest, calmest day on the board and the best morning of the week.
Friday is where this file earns its place. This evening's edition carried Friday as the week's payoff at 79.6 degrees; the late read cuts that to 75.2 - a 4.4-degree downgrade in a single cycle, with the precipitation chance still at zero and the low at 52.2. The warm spike Houston was promised for Friday is, on the current feed, simply not there. Anyone who planned the week's outdoor work around a near-80 Friday should replan around a mid-70s one.
The weekend firms up wet. Saturday is steady - overcast, a high of 70.6, a warm low of 60.3 and an 8 percent rain chance - but Sunday's rain chance has risen from 57 to 63 percent at the same cool 63.6 high, and Monday's has risen the same way, 57 to 63 percent, at 69.8. Tuesday turns mostly clear at 69.9 with the chance down to 6 percent. The shape of the week from here: a clear Thursday, a cooler-than-promised Friday, and a Sunday-Monday pair that now both look more likely than not to be wet.
