FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast: More rain possible Friday

Friday is once again a FOX 26 Storm Alert Day. Flood Watch has been extended until 4 pm Friday for Houston and areas south and east of Houston. An additional 1-4″ of rain is possible through Friday evening, especially south of I-10. Watch for flooded streets & avoid those areas if possible. Rain chances remain around 60-70% this weekend which will keep a low flood threat in place. Here’s the good news. Weather pattern finally makes a major shift next week to a hotter and drier pattern. That means a return to more sunshine and the 90s. Tropics remain quiet across the Atlantic basin with no major action expected through the end of July.
