KATC StormTeam 3 Weather BLOG

Our warm and humid weather with the chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue for a couple of more days but drier weather is on the way for Sunday.  The upper low that has been sitting across the Plains states will finally get kicked out yielding a more progressive upper pattern across the Gulf rim.  Scattered tropical showers and storms remain in the forecast for Friday and Saturday but a frontal trough may initially enhance our rain chances Saturday.  Drier but not much cooler weather should advance into the region Sunday with highs still persisting in the upper 80s to near 90 through Monday.  A secondary frontal trough with decidedly cooler air should arrive by Monday night insuring comfortable humidity, plenty of sunshine and almost fall-like conditions for next Tuesday and Wednesday.  Highs mid-next week will be closer to the mid-80s while overnight lows are expected to drop into the mid-60s.  The respite from the rain chances may be short-lived with a quick-moving weather system possibly bringing rain chances back to the area by the end of next week.  Rob
