Wednesday weather update
 
From Space City Weather:
 
In brief:
*We'll see a short reprieve in humidity today, but then we are back to hot, and mostly sunny weather through Saturday.
*The second half of Memorial Day weekend could see the onset of some scattered showers, and by next week a pattern change should bring cooler temperatures and more widespread precip.
 
Front status:
 
*A weak front moved into Houston overnight that produced some stray showers and thunderstorms near downtown Houston and the Liberty area.
*For the most part, it was a dry pass, and the front has now stalled near the coast, which should allow for showers (mostly offshore) this morning before lifting back north as a warm front.
*Therefore, if you're enjoying the slightly lower humidity levels this morning, don't get too attached. Humidity levels will begin to climb this afternoon, and we'll be back to sticky status this evening.
 
Wednesday:
 
*Skies will be mostly sunny for most of Houston today, with high temperatures in the low 90s.
*Winds will start out from the northeast this morning, but return to come from the southeast by this afternoon or evening-hence the rapidly recovering humidity levels discussed above.
*There likely will be some showers offshore, and a few of these may impact coastal areas today, but most likely they mostly remain over the Gulf.
*Lows temperatures tonight will drop into the mid-70s.
 
Thursday and Friday:
 
*These will be a pair of mostly sunny and humid days, with high temperatures in the low- to mid-90s for most locations and nights in the 70s.
*Rain chances are near zero.
*Winds from the southeast, generally, will be light.
 
Memorial Day weekend:
 
It's hard to believe we are already at the Memorial Day weekend stage of things, but here we are.
 
*Saturday should, more or less, see a continuation of the hot, humid, and mostly sunny weather of Thursday and Friday.
*Sunday may see a few more clouds, but will still be rather hot and humid. (There may be a 20 percent chance of rain)
*By Memorial Day, we are likely to see the impacts of an advancing front.
*Highs may be around 90 degrees, with partly to mostly cloudy skies, and perhaps a 50 percent chance of light to moderate showers.
 
Next week:
 
*The details remain sketchy but a front is likely to move into Houston and bring a period of moderately cooler and wetter weather.
*Most of next week should see highs in the 80s and lows in the 70s, with healthy rain chances.
*It's difficult to pick a day with the greatest likelihood of rain, but we do look to be headed to a pattern in which showers are more abundant.
*We could use the break after a mostly hot, and mostly sunny May so far.

It feels wonderful outside this morning. I hope it's cool again this evening. I know it's going to get hot today, but I hope the humidity stays down through this evening. I would love to take a short walk on the street after dinner.

I wouldn't mind another thunderstorm in the early evening! That was a nice surprise for me.
 
teatime : I was hoping we'd get *something* out of it! 1/2 inch isn't much rainfall but I'll take it!

It does. I wish we could keep it. Yesterday ran some errands and it was awful outside with the high humidity.
