A slow-moving cold front will trigger more downpours in the Houston metro area through Friday, but conditions are set to change in the coming days.

After a stormy stretch through Saturday, conditions turn hotter and drier Sunday into early next week. Expect highs in the mid-90s with only isolated showers and continued tropical monitoring as the peak of hurricane season approaches on September 10.

By late Saturday night, the Houston area could see 1 to 2 inches of rain. That’s according to the KPRC 2 Weather Team’s latest Storm Tracker 2 forecast. Meteorologist Justin Stapleton explained that storms forming in the morning are likely to create outflow boundaries, which can spark extra showers and thunderstorms into the evening.

Around 12:10 p.m., Doppler weather radar detected heavy rainfall from thunderstorms soaking areas that have already recorded up to 2 inches of rain.

Our overall weather pattern is unchanged compared to the last few days, so expect more rounds of mostly afternoon and evening storms to move in from the north today and tomorrow.

Houston starts Tuesday mostly dry, but a few isolated showers or thunderstorms could pop up through the day. Threats are low today, but heavier downpours and more widespread storms are expected later this week. Severe weather is not the main concern — instead, the focus will be on heavy rain, gusty winds, and localized flooding by midweek.

A ridge of high pressure is regaining influence over Southeast Texas weather after a stretch of unsettled days, courtesy of a sluggish cold front.

HOUSTON - Severe weather moving across the Houston area could impact your flight. A ground stop is in place for departures to George Bush Intercontinental Airport due to thunderstorms, according to the FAA. The ground stop is expected to last until at least 12:30 p.m. CT
