Houston's Coldest Morning Since April Brings Windy Conditions
A chill is in the air as Houston bracing for its coldest morning since April, thanks to a blast of ultra-dry air moving into the region. Overnight, the wind will die down significantly but not completely, bringing temperatures to the 40s for most areas. However, come morning, residents can expect a brisk breeze and cooler temperatures, with some spots dipping into the low-40s.
The good news is that sunshine and warm temperatures are expected to prevail in the afternoon, pushing highs just above 70 degrees. This means you'll need to trade in your jacket for a lighter layer as the day warms up. If allergies have been acting up, it's likely due to high levels of ragweed, mold, or elm tree pollen - and even some cedar pollen has made an appearance.
Looking ahead, temperatures will continue to drop behind the front on Friday, with widespread lows in the 40-45 degree range. Comfortable temperatures are expected throughout the weekend, including Election Day, with highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s. It's looking like we're finally saying goodbye to 90-degree weather for the rest of 2025.
Trick-or-treaters will be enjoying nearly ideal conditions on Halloween, with temperatures falling from around 70 at 5 p.m. into the upper 50s by 9 p.m. under a mostly clear sky.
However, not all good news is coming out of the tropics. A fast-moving upper air disturbance is expected to bring showers and a chance of lightning to Texas on Saturday afternoon and evening, potentially dampening weekend plans. But don't worry - the rain should clear out before sunrise Sunday, leaving behind a sunny and pleasant second half to the weekend.
Lastly, Hurricane Melissa is accelerating away from the Caribbean and could impact Bermuda as it passes by Thursday night.

. On a slightly more serious note, I'm a bit worried about Hurricane Melissa heading towards Bermuda... fingers crossed it doesn't cause any major issues for the island! 
And now with Halloween coming up, they'll be traipsing around in the dark with all that stuff floating around. Can we just have a normal allergy season for once?! 
Anyway, at least it's supposed to warm up over the weekend and get rid of those 90s temps... finally! 
! i'm so over 90 degrees, can't we just stay in the 70s forever? 
but seriously, i'm loving that Halloween is gonna be perfect for trick-or-treaters 
. and let's not forget about Election Day, yay for comfy temps 
. btw, has anyone else noticed how dry it's been lately? seems like our air quality is totally off 
#HoustonWeather #FallVibes #HurricaneAlert
. Like, can't we just have a nice consistent weather for once? 
And of course, allergies are back, ugh, ragweed is the WORST 
. But on the bright side, I'm excited for Halloween, perfect fall vibes 
! And yay, finally some cooler temps, I'm so over the heat 
. Bring on the layers and cozy sweaters 
!
. On one hand, who doesn't love a crisp autumn day? 
.

! I mean, low 40s? That's like, back in my day when we still wore coats to school... and it was winter break or something 
But, hey, at least it's not gonna be 90 degrees all weekend, right? That would've been a real scorcher for a Halloween party... but I guess trick-or-treaters won't have to worry about melting into their costumes this year 
... like we didn't have enough layers already. and yay for ragweed allergies 
... can't wait to break out the tissues. at least it's not like it's going to be a heatwave or anything. 40s and 50s, perfect weather for complaining about how cold it is 
. At least it looks like we're finally getting some comfortable temps in the 50s, though 
.
️. And yay! Warm temps on Friday, just in time for Halloween 
. Let's hope the rain in Texas doesn't ruin anyone's weekend plans 
️. Fingers crossed for a sunny second half of the weekend 
. Not to mention, who needs rain ruining their costume plans? 
.
I'm kinda low-key loving how the weather in Houston is finally giving us some breathing room after that crazy heatwave. Those 90s temps were getting outta control 
with those fall temps rolling in. Only downside? That rain on Saturday... fingers crossed it clears out before Sunday 
️. It's like life itself, you know? Ups and downs, highs and lows... but we gotta learn to adapt & make the most of every situation. And hey, who needs 90-degree weather when we can have crisp air & sunshine in the afternoon ? 
btw, do you think it'll actually cool down in november? i'm so over this dry air...
