Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Texas
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
329 AM CDT Fri Apr 4 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Gusty southerly winds and high RH values are expected the next
couple of days. Winds could gust over 30 MPH at times. In our
southern and coastal zones, occasional gusts over 40 MPH cannot
be ruled out. There will also be a chance of isolated to
scattered showers and thunderstorms across our northern zones
later today with the potential for an isolated strong to severe
thunderstorm. Expect more widespread showers and storms on
Saturday as a cold front pushes across SE Texas.
