Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southeast Texas
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
242 PM CDT Tue Jul 2 2024

.DISCUSSION..
Light winds and hot/humid conditions will prevail over the next
several days. Along with the light speeds, we can also expect the
direction of winds to be fairly variable, particular at night and
in the mornings. This is when a light landbreeze will conflict
with otherwise southerly winds. In the afternoon, as the seabreeze
takes over, these two working in tandem will keep winds a little
more persistently out of the south, albeit still with some
variability.

Some isolated afternoon showers and storms may develop each
afternoon, though the potential for rain at any given spot will be
fairly low. While haze from dust aloft may continue to be
slightly noticeable, its concentration looks to diminish into the
late week.
