Houston Weekend Forecast for January 9–11, 2026

The weekend forecast for Houston brings a wet Friday, a brisk Saturday, and a calm, cool finish on Sunday. While rain leads off the weekend, conditions improve steadily. This outlook should help you plan around the changing weather.

Friday: Steady Rain and Mild Temperatures

Friday stays gray and damp from morning through evening. Temperatures remain mild, with daytime highs near the upper 70s and morning lows in the upper 60s.

• High: about 76°F
• Low: about 68°F
• Rain: Widespread, around moderate levels
• Wind: 10 mph from the southwest with gusts near 23 mph

Because rain lasts most of the day, roads may run slick through the evening commute. However, storm activity looks low. Expect a warm and humid feel despite the clouds.

Saturday: Cooler Air Arrives

Saturday brings a sharp cool-down as drier air moves in behind Friday’s system. Although skies stay cloudy, rain becomes much lighter and more spotty.

• High: near 63°F
• Low: near 56°F
• Rain: Light and brief
• Wind: 15 mph from the north with gusts near 30 mph

Winds turn breezy by afternoon. Even though temperatures dip, the air stays crisp and comfortable. Outdoor plans should improve once the morning drizzle clears.

Sunday: Dry, Cool, and Calm

Sunday offers the nicest weather of the weekend. Overcast skies persist, but the air dries out completely and winds ease.

• High: near 59°F
• Low: near 53°F
• Rain: None expected
• Wind: 12 mph from the north with gusts up to 27 mph

The cool, stable air makes Sunday great for outdoor errands and afternoon walks. While clouds linger, conditions remain steady and quiet throughout the day.

Looking Ahead

The weekend starts wet but trends toward cooler and calmer weather. Because Sunday delivers the most comfortable stretch, you may want to save outdoor plans until then. For more local updates, check the latest forecast at Houston Weather.
