Wed storm chances - Space City

Wed. storm chances - Space City A chance of storms today in Houston before hotter and hazy weather arrives
Eric Berger Wednesday, June 4, 2025 6:55 AMIn brief:
*A decaying front will provide the spark for some shower and thunderstorm chances today.
*Not everyone will see rain for sure, but a few locations may see heavy showers.
*After today we start drying out and heating up, with the weekend looking especially warm.
*Some locations will approach 100 degrees.Wednesday*A weak front will stall out north of the Houston metro area today, but it should get close enough to perturb our atmosphere enough to make things interesting in terms of showers and thunderstorms.
*Later this morning, and during the afternoon hours, we will see boundaries setting up across the region that may collide with the sea breeze to produce some activity.
*Overall rain chances are probably on the order of 40 percent-so for many us we may see dark skies and possibly lightning nearby, but no rain.
*However, I do think there will be some pockets of the Houston area (more likely north of Interstate 10, but it really could be anywhere) that pick up a quick 1 to 3 inches of rain.
*We may also see some damaging winds, but for the most part I think the predominant threat is heavy rain.*Mostly cloudy skies and rain-cooled air should help keep a lid on temperatures this afternoon.
*Most of us will probably reach around 90 degrees, give or take a bit.
*Humidity will remain high, of course.
*Winds will generally be about 10 mph from the south, but stronger gusts will be possible within thunderstorms.
*Lows tonight will drop into the upper 70s.
