Dry Spell Ahead: Texas Braces for Another Week of Drought
As Houston residents bid farewell to the weekend's brief rain showers, a beautiful stretch of dry weather is set to take over the region today. A weak cool front will dominate the area, bringing clear skies and plenty of sunshine with it.
Temperatures are expected to start in the upper 40s and low 50s this morning before warming up into the low-mid 70s by afternoon. The good news is that while moisture returns on Wednesday, it's unlikely to bring much in the way of rain – at least not yet.
The upcoming week looks promising for those seeking a break from the heat and humidity. Expect sunny skies, cool mornings, and mild afternoons through Election Day. However, as we head into the latter part of November, drought conditions are likely to persist, making it essential to conserve water whenever possible.
In the tropics, there's no tropical activity to speak of for the next 7 days, courtesy of a recent system that's moved out of the area. For the latest updates and in-depth video analysis, head to our tropical update page.
As we "fall back" from daylight saving time, don't forget to set your clocks back an hour tonight. While it may seem like a minor adjustment, it's essential to get into the habit to avoid any confusion come tomorrow morning.

. I'm not sure how much more of this dry spell our poor plants can take. Anyone know when we can expect some proper rain around here? Not just a tease like it is on Wednesday 
. And ugh, don't even get me started on the water conservation thing... I feel bad for people who can't afford to save every drop 
. On the bright side, at least we won't have to deal with all that humidity 
. Still, a girl can dream of some cooler mornings and evenings would be nice 
. Oh and btw, let's not forget to set those clocks back tonight 
... who needs an extra hour anyway?
oh man I'm so done with this drought already! 
like can we just get some rain or something? 
and ugh, Daylight Saving Time is the WORST... why do we always have to fall back anyway? 
. and can we pls just say good riddance to daylight saving time already? my brain is all like what time is it again?! 
! A whole week of no rain? That's just cruel 
. And don't even get me started on conserving water... like, I know it's a big deal and all, but can't we just, like, have some normal weather for once?! 
️, at least the heat and humidity will die down a bit. But seriously though, how long are drought conditions gonna last? And what's up with all these cool fronts and warm ups? Is it like, some kind of crazy weather rollercoaster or something?! 
I'm so over all this hot weather and dry soil. Can't we just get some decent rain for once? 
but I guess we gotta be realistic and water conservation is a must 
. It's not all bad tho, I mean sunny skies are nice and cooler temps sound perfect for the upcoming week 
. And let's stay hopeful that things won't be too dry by November 
. and omg don't even get me started on the importance of water conservation - like, we need to be more careful with our resources, you know? 
. and btw, who else is ready for daylight saving time to end already 
... i'm over the whole "fall back" thing 
ugh man, drought is like a metaphor for our own existential crisis, right? we're stuck in this never-ending cycle of dryness and uncertainty. one day it's pouring rain, the next it's scorching hot. can't even plan for the future without the weather throwing us off. and now we gotta "fall back" on some outdated system that's still trying to dictate our lives. what even is time? is it just a human construct to keep us in line or something? 
and with drought conditions still looming, i hope they got those wildfire prevention efforts on high alert 
! also, ugh how do ppl forget to set their clocks back already? 
we need to conserve and stuff, don't wanna be stuck in a super dry spell forever 
gotta love these dry spells in Texas - perfect excuse to crack open that cold one (or two, or three...) and enjoy some sunny days! but for real tho, drought conditions are a big deal, especially with all the crazy weather we've been seeing lately 
I mean, can you imagine not being able to enjoy a simple BBQ or a refreshing dip in the pool without thinking about water conservation? 
at least it's looking pretty good for outdoor activities tho - perfect weather for a hike or a picnic with friends 
. Can't people just use some water already? I mean, we know there's gonna be some rain coming but that's not exactly helping us now is it? 
We need to get serious about conserving water here! Every drop counts, folks 
gotta prep for our exams soon tho, anyone got any study tips?
just thinking about another week of drought in Texas is giving me anxiety... like how can we conserve water when most people still use too much? 
! Who needs sunshine and warmth when you can have dust storms and watering restrictions? 
I mean, I know some people love the Texas heat, but can't we just get a decent rain shower for once?!
