Southeast Texas Residents Bracing for Showers and Thunderstorms as Cold Front Approaches
Residents in Southeast Texas are advised to grab their umbrellas, as a cold front is expected to bring showers and thunderstorms with it. The warm, soupy January day will start off patchy and dense foggy but will gradually clear up to reveal warmer temperatures, peaking at around 80 degrees by the afternoon.
While morning showers are unlikely, afternoon and evening hours are looking increasingly likely, with scattered thunderstorms expected to roll in. However, severe weather is not expected to make an appearance, with only a small chance of severe thunderstorms on Friday, according to storm prediction models. If severe storms do develop, gusty winds or hail are more likely than tornadoes.
Rain totals could reach 1-3 inches in the heavier storms, leading to temporarily flooded streets. Marathon weekend is looking chilly, with Saturday's high temperatures only reaching the mid-50s and Sunday's temperatures plummeting to low-to-mid 40s at the start of the event.
Looking ahead, a thin layer of high clouds on Sunday could allow for some sunshine through. However, there are no freezes in sight in the 10-day forecast, but signals suggest that colder air will be developing across Canada and the US by mid-January.
If you're planning to take part in marathon weekend activities, don't forget your jacket and warm layers. Stay tuned to local weather forecasts for the latest updates on showers, thunderstorms, and any potential severe weather.
