Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southeast Texas
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
238 PM CDT Wed Jul 3 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.
