I hope everyone is planning a wonderful time outside for Memorial Day Weekend. It’s the beginning of the warmth up north, and probably the last time it won’t be too hot down south.

At 853PM, CT, Houston was reporting a temperature of 72 degrees. Moisture in the atmosphere was high, after rain this afternoon. There will likely be some fog and low clouds overnight. The bulk of the rainfall has shifted towards the Mississippi Delta, however a weak upper level trough remains over east Texas, which means that there won’t be any real clearing tomorrow.
With the trough hanging out in eastern Texas will continue to generate cyclonic flow in the western Gulf. Showers with some embedded thunderstorms will be more frequent and wider in coverage over Louisiana, on the east side of the circulation, but lingering moisture and scattered showers will remain a possibility throughout the remainder of the holiday weekend, with precipitation more likely Sunday than Monday.
