Storms Heading To Humble Friday Night, Early Saturday: NWS

HUMBLE-KINGWOOD, TX — Another cold front will move through the Humble-Kingwood area Friday night and into Saturday morning, potentially bringing strong thunderstorms to the area, according to forecasts from the National Weather Service.

Most of the precipitation will be rain showers, but there is a chance for isolated, stronger thunderstorms. Humble-Kingwood is under a marginal risk of severe weather, according to NWS Houston.

The front will reach College Station and areas north of Houston around midnight before moving into Houston and the Interstate 10 corridor in the early morning hours Saturday and then through Galveston into the Gulf of Mexico around sunrise or shortly after.

The main threat from any potential severe weather or strong thunderstorms is expected to be gusty winds, but a brief tornado is a distant secondary threat, according to NWS Houston. Rain totals should remain low because the system is projected to move quickly through the area.

Following the front, strong winds are expected to gust out of the north throughout Saturday, and temperatures are expected to drop over the weekend.

In Humble, the forecast calls for a high of 67 degrees Saturday and a high of 63 degrees Sunday with an overnight low of 39 degrees Saturday.

The cold front comes just hours after Houston Hobby Airport set a record high for Dec. 10 on Friday morning with a reading of 84 degrees, breaking the previous mark of 82 degrees set in 1939, according to NWS Houston.
