High white alto stratus clouds looked to be scattered across the sky, at my house and in my neighborhood in northwest Houston, TX, during the morning, afternoon, evening, and night. The wind speeds were calm with maybe some light gusts. There was no rain that I could see, or feel. I don't think there was any chance for rain for the Houston, TX area. The day was warm.

782 FXUS64 KHGX 252333 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 633 PM CDT Fri Sep 25 2020 .AVIATION... VFR conditions expected to start the TAF period but with clear skies, light winds and wet grounds from recent rain, feel there will again be some potential for areas of fog overnight. Not sure how widespread or dense fog will get but the potential is there for some pockets of dense fog. The fog should be shallow and burn off early on Saturday with VFR ceilings possible through the morning morning transitioning to no ceilings by evening. 43 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 343 PM CDT Fri Sep 25 2020/ SHORT TERM [Tonight through Saturday Afternoon]... Another quiet evening with light winds and clearing skies in the early evening with the loss of heating. A brief penetration of the seabreeze possible late this afternoon into the early evening for areas within about 5 miles of the coast. Tonight patchy fog/areas of fog will likely be developing after 3 am for the inland areas especially in the more rural locations with radiational cooling. Fog dissipating quickly Saturday morning between 7-8 am with heating and then development of shallow CU and capping aloft as upper speed max approaches from the southwest. Moisture return starts and slow rise in BL depth and temperatures should rise into the mid to upper 80s. An isolated shower may be possible east and northeast of the Trinity bay area but chances look slim as upper trough moves through the area. 45 LONG TERM...[Saturday Night through Friday] It will be a little warmer Saturday night through Sunday night as winds come back around to the southeast and south in response to deepening low pressure in the Texas panhandle-West Texas area. Rain is not expected to come back into the picture until late Sunday night through Monday when a strong cold front sweeps through the area. Best rain chances currently look like during the day on Monday ahead of the front with the higher values across ports of our northeast and east counties. Rainfall totals will not be bad at all (nothing even close to what we saw with Beta) due partly to the fast movement of the front (wettest spots might see 1/4 to 1/2 inch). Behind the front, expect falling temperatures along with possible breezy conditions developing inland and breezy/windy conditions developing near and along the coast Monday afternoon and especially Monday night and Tuesday in response to a tightened pressure gradient. With strong ridging developing out west and a deep trough developing out east, look for cooler nights (lows mainly in the 50s inland and in the 60s at the beaches), not as warm days (highs the 70s/80s) and much lower humidities for the remainder of the week as September comes to an end and October begins). 42 MARINE... Mild conditions expected tonight through Sunday with winds varying from northeasterly around to the south then gradually increasing Saturday night into Sunday. Winds may briefing increase to SCEC conditions Sunday night in the Matagorda Bay area and the waters to the south. A strong cold front will move through SETX Monday and off the coast between 8am and noon. CAA signals all showing a stronger cold front and forcing indicating the potential for a line of showers or storms to accompany parts of the front that isn`t capped. After the FROPA winds should quickly ramp up to SCA conditions with sustained 20+ knot winds and stronger gusts. Winds of 25-30 knots will be with possible Monday evening into early Tuesday morning. Winds should relax Tuesday afternoon/evening as surface high settles over the coast. 45 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
