Holiday weekend forecast
 
From Space City Weather:
 
A mostly fine start to Memorial Day weekend in Houston, with slightly higher rain chances on Monday.

In brief:
 
*The holiday weekend should be mostly fine (albeit hot) in Houston.
*Rain chances will rev back up a bit late Sunday night & Monday morning and again deeper into next week.
*For now, Memorial Day Monday looks unsettled but perhaps not a total loss.
 
Memorial Day Weekend:
 
Let's jump right into the big holiday weekend.
 
*First off, if you have plans in the Houston area or on the coast today and tomorrow, you're more than likely going to have no issues whatsoever.
*There could be a passing shower or storm in the region, but it would most likely be extremely isolated.
*The vast majority of us should see absolutely nothing.
*If the odds of rain on Friday and Saturday are something like 5 percent, then I think Sunday's odds nudge up to about 10 percent.
*Again, the vast majority of the area will be fine on Sunday but there could be at least a few more pop-up showers or a very, very isolated thunderstorm.
 
So what about Monday?
 
*Well, that's the trickiest day of them all this weekend.
*Models have been pretty consistent about trying to bring a cluster of thunderstorms in from the north on Sunday night into Monday morning.
*We could then see a break in the action followed by another round perhaps on Monday night.
*Eric or I will throw an update out there on Monday morning with the latest thinking but I would not postpone any plans at this point.
 
I'd would be mindful that the chance of rain is highest on Monday.

Region-wide holiday weekend weather:
 
If you'll be traveling across Texas this weekend, there should not be a whole heck of a lot to bother you today or tomorrow.
 
*Isolated storms could be on the stronger side between the Permian and the Panhandle.
*There's a slight (2/5) risk of severe storms near Wichita Falls on Saturday.
*Sunday is a little more interesting with the potential for more severe storms, especially from the Caprock into North Texas.

*The remnants of those storms are what we could see in the Houston area late Sunday night or Monday morning.
*For Monday, that chance of severe weather moves more into Hill Country and Central Texas up through DFW.
*Basically, between Houston and Dallas, there will be some severe risk Monday afternoon and evening.

*Memorial Day Weekend has had a history of flash flooding in Texas.
*At this time, the risk of flooding looks to be about average given the forecast; there are no significant flash flooding concerns right now.
 
Holiday weekend temperatures:
 
As for the temperatures -- They look hot. 🔥
 
*The combination of heat and humidity will make it feel like 100 to 105 degrees at times tomorrow through Monday.
*Actual highs will be in the mid-90s, with morning lows in the upper-70s.
*It will be cooler by day closer to the coast and a bit hotter farther inland.
 
Next week:
 
*Temperatures will back down a bit due to clouds and rain chances next week.
*While it won't rain everywhere or every day, there will be a good chance of rounds of thunderstorms throughout the week.

StormChaser : Looking forward to the increased rain chances next week.
