Weekend forecast
Weekend forecast Let the weather rollercoaster begin! 🎢 Also, Christmas Day temps look to climb to near record breaking with a temp of 80 degrees forecasted with muggy & humid conditions. 🎅🔥🎄 ........................ From Space City Weather: A light freeze near Houston Monday and then a big warm up. Also, our way-too-early Christmas Day forecast. Eric Berger · Friday, December 12, 2025 7:08 AM In brief:
*In today's post we discuss the return of fog, and some humidity.
*A sharp front arrives Sunday that will bring a chance of a light freeze into Houston.
*After Sunday, we're going to warm up. Will some cooler air arrive in time for Christmas? Find out in our way-too-early Christmas Day forecast. Christmas Day forecast 🎅 Don't worry, Christmas shoppers. You still have 13 days before the holiday. Which means it is ridiculously early to try and forecast the weather (realistically, about 10 days is the limit). Nevertheless, readers have been asking, and we aim to deliver. Just understand that you've been warned, and there may more coal stocked in this forecast than candy. *As we've been saying for a couple of days now, the run-up to Christmas Day looks rather warm.
*Record highs in Houston are generally in the 81°-83° range for the last 10 days of December; beginning next weekend, we are likely going to be flirting with this range of temperatures.
*We are reasonably confident in this forecast because high pressure patterns are fairly straightforward to predict. 
*At some point, the pattern will break, and we will see a more winter-like pattern emerge.
*In late December, it is more difficult for these highs to persist in this manner. However, we just can't say whether a front will come on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, or even later in the holiday week.
🎅👉 For that reason, I'm going to go with a forecast high of 80 degrees on Christmas, with fairly humid conditions and mostly cloudy skies. I would dearly love to be wrong about that, mind you. FRIDAY - *Temperatures and dewpoints are basically the same this morning, in the low to mid 50s with calm winds. That's a great recipe for dense fog, which is just what we've got. It should gradually diminish after sunrise, but it will be nuisance until then.
*We can expect more of this on Saturday and possibly Sunday mornings.
*Highs today will climb into the mid to upper 70s today, with partly to mostly cloudy skies.
*With dewpoints rising into the 60s, it will feel modestly humid as well.
*Low temperatures tonight will only drop into the 60s. SATURDAY - *The first half of the weekend will be similarly warm and humid, with highs in the upper 70s.
*Skies will also be partly cloudy, although some clearing is possible during the afternoon hours.
*There is also a chance of some light showers during the daytime, perhaps 20 or 30 percent, so keep that in mind if you have outdoor plans.
*Saturday night also looks fairly warm and muggy. SUNDAY - *Temperatures will start out in the low to mid 60s on Sunday morning, and that is where they will peak ahead of a fairly strong cold front.
*The front will likely arrive around sunrise in Houston.
*We could see some light showers with the front, although I'm not expecting anything at all serious in the way of accumulations.
*We'll see clearing skies during the afternoon, along with winds gusting to perhaps 25 mph. (These gusts should back off a bit during the evening hours) 
*Temperatures will drop throughout the day, accelerating during the late afternoon and evening hours.
*I expect lows for most of the city, except for the immediate coast, to reach the 30s by Monday morning.
*As for a freeze, it's a good question. If you live in Montgomery or Chambers County, I think there's probably at least a 50 percent chance of a freeze on Sunday night, whereas in the city of Houston and points south and west of Houston, the odds are quite a bit lower.
*We'll do a short post this weekend updating you on the expected freeze line. NEXT WEEK - *Monday will be cold, in the 50s, and mostly clear.
*We should see another chilly night, albeit in the low 40s, as the onshore flow resumes.
*By Wednesday, our daytime temperatures will be solidly in the 70s.
*There is a slight hint in some of the models of a front in the Friday time frame of next week but it's not something I would count on.
*After that, we're into the warm run-up to Christmas I spoke about above. Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!

StormChaser : I really like it when the temp on Christmas eve/day is no higher that 60 degrees. It doesn't have to be super cold just a little chilly. I like it when the air feels crisp and clean when I breath.
I hate warm weather on Christmas. Thats a bummer.
ZMAN : I usually do too, but there will at least be good weather for my kids to zoom around on their new scooters and mess around with this new telescope my son is getting for Christmas
StormChaser: Ugh! Really hope they are wrong about Christmas but at least one of us will enjoy it. 😅
StormChaser : Middle of the road here. I am happy it will be warm enough for the grands to play outdoors but would be happier if it would only warm up to 60s.

Kittle :
StormChaser : I need your escape plan! We host both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Although I love hosting sometimes I want to change my name as someone is constantly calling me needing or wanting something.😀
ZMAN : I love warm weather on any day. I would love to live in the Carribean.
change my name as someone is constantly calling me needing or wanting something.😀
Kittle : Oh I give that name to my husband when it comes to cooking lol. « Back to Chat
