Rain chances dwindle + burn bans Any rain chances that existed in the next 10 days have basically dwindled to zero. The rest of the summer (Now-Oct) is looking incredibly dry (Not just the next 10 days) Moderate & severe drought levels are going to become a concern. Burn bans are now being put into place all across Texas and they are encroaching our area of SE Texas. *Harris County is not currently under a ban but that will come likely next month with this forecast. The rain we've had so far this Summer is what's kept us from a 2011 repeat, but that moisture is gone now. *************** From Space City Weather........ While The Details May Change Somewhat; Hot And Mostly Rain-Free Weather Will Stay With Us For Quite A While. Eric Berger 7/27/2023 7:21 AM Good morning. I would love nothing more than to report some positive news about the Houston weather this morning. To say that temperatures are going to drop back into the low 90s next week, with a decent amount of cloud cover. Or to say that our region is finally going to get a good soaking from some much needed, steady rains. But I can say none of those things. *For the next week or 10 days, unfortunately, it looks as though our weather is just going to get hotter, and anyone getting some rain will feel like they hit the lottery* THURSDAY AND FRIDAY High temperatures today and Friday will reach the mid- to upper-90s for much of the region, with mostly sunny skies. And if you're thinking that sounds bad, well, this is actually our cooler stretch of weather before things really start to heat up this weekend. Winds will be light, out of the southeast. As for our rain chances, they're going to be low. If you live north of Interstate 10, they're about 10 percent or less. The highest rain chances will be south of Interstate 10, and particularly to the southwest in places like Fort Bend County. These may be about 20 or 25 percent. Again, if you receive any meaningful precipitation today or tomorrow, count yourself very lucky. SATURDAY AND SUNDAY Houston will lie on the southern edge of a high pressure system anchored over the Central United States this weekend, but we're going to feel its effects enough that we'll see sunny skies and highs near 100 degrees this weekend. Rain chances are probably 10 percent, or less. NEXT WEEK If you're wondering whether there's any relief in the forecast during the first half of next week, the answer is no. It's going to be very hot, and at a minimum I would expect heat advisories from the National Weather Service, if not outright excessive heat warnings. It's possible that rain chances rebound somewhat toward the second half of next week, but given the persistence of our heat and lack of precipitation, it's hard to bet on that changing without a much stronger signal in the forecast models.
