It felt cool with a chilly wind during the mid-morning. It felt warm with a little cool wind, during the late morning and afternoon. It felt warm during the evening. It felt a little cool during the night. The wind speeds were calm with some occasional moderately strong wind gusts from mid-morning through the afternoon. No rain at all for the Houston, TX area.
Thoughts: Apart from the sun blocking my view on my way to and from work during the mornings and evenings. I am kind of enjoy the clear skies and dry weather. Although I miss the rain. Hoping to get some more soon. Not exactly looking forward to the cooler weather.
Area Forecast Discussion

304 FXUS64 KHGX 022310 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 610 PM CDT Fri Oct 2 2020 .AVIATION... 00Z TAFS are VFR with just some cirrus. Light and variable winds tonight becoming SE to S and increasing to 5 to 10 knots late tomorrow morning and on through tomorrow afternoon. Light and variable winds again tomorrow night becoming mainly from the N at around 5 knots on Sunday. No rain. 42 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 333 PM CDT Fri Oct 2 2020/ SHORT TERM [Through Saturday Night]... High pressure will continue to dominate the short term forecast. Mostly clear skies, dry conditions, and light winds will continue through Saturday night. The winds will be veering beginning tonight and through the day on Saturday turning from a northeasterly direction today, a easterly wind tonight, then becoming southeasterly on Saturday. Temperatures tonight will dip down into the 50s across most of the area, but temperatures in the Bayou City and along the coast will probably stay in the low to mid 60s. High temperatures during the day on Saturday will across climb into the low 80s across the region. The more southeasterly flow Saturday night will keep the temperatures about five degrees warmer than tonight. Fowler LONG TERM [Sunday Through Friday]... A weak upper level low will pass to the north on Sunday. We won`t really notice it other than some partly cloudy skies to the north. It will usher in a reinforcing cold front Sunday night into Monday morning continuing our stretch absolutely beautiful weather through Tuesday with high temperatures in the mid 80s and low temperatures in the low 60s. The forecast begins to get a little more messy by the middle of next week as Tropical Depression 25 (or Tropical Storm Gamma at that point) meanders around the Bay of Campeche. If it able to wobble more to the north, some of the outer rainbands may reach our far Gulf Waters by Thursday, with some high level clouds streaming across the rest of the region. More info on TD 25 can be found in the tropical section below. One of the things working in our favor is that there will be another cold front (albeit very weak) moving into the region on Thursday that will help keep some of the tropical moisture away from SE Texas. Fowler MARINE... East to northeast winds gusting to 20 knots will gradually decrease early this evening as pressure gradient relaxes. The region will be dominated by a surface high pressure to our northeast, keeping light to moderate onshore flow into Sunday. Seas up to 5 ft and gusty winds from 20 to 25 knots will again be possible on Monday as another cold front crosses the region. We continue to monitor marine conditions for next week as a couple of tropical systems move over/near the Gulf of Mexico. The first system we are monitoring is the Tropical Depression 25, which is currently near Yucatan/Bay Campeche and is expected to move across the southern Gulf of Mexico over the next several days. This Tropical Depression could potentially bring high swells/wave heights and rain chances over our Gulf waters late next week. Marine interest should continue to keep up with the latest forecast information as these systems evolve. 05 TROPICAL... Well, the quiet tropics was nice while it lasted. Tropical Depression Twenty Five formed in the SW Caribbean this morning. It is expected to move northwestward toward the Yucatan Peninsula in the next couple of days. It is expected to reach tropical storm strength Saturday morning, thus becoming Gamma. There is not much steering flow over the southern Gulf right now, so 25/Gamma is expected to just meander around the Yucatan and the Bay of Campeche into the start of next week. There is still pretty large uncertainty in the long term track because of the slow/meandering nature of the system. It does not pose an immediate threat to SE Texas at this time, but mariners should continue to follow the latest forecast information as wave heights may remain elevated in the Gulf through most of next week with TD25 meandering around. Rip current There is another tropical wave that the NHC is monitoring for development in the coming days in the eastern Caribbean. This system has a 10 percent chance (low) of forming in the next two days, and a 40 percent (medium) chance of development within the next five days. Fowler && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
