Key takeaway Temperatures are expected to climb to the mid-90s with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms.
A change in the weather pattern is expected in Houston , starting on Thursday. This shift is due to the area of high pressure moving west, creating a weakness in the atmosphere. As a result, southerly winds will lead to a more active sea breeze thunderstorm pattern.
This will increase humidity and cloud cover, slightly lowering temperatures. However, the heat index will remain unchanged due to higher humidity. Further details on the forecast, including the weekend outlook and tropical activity, are available from the source.
Temperatures are expected to climb to the mid-90s with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms.
