Houston Weekend Weather Forecast for January 23–25, 2026

This weekend brings a little of everything to Houston. We start with warm clouds, move into a steady Saturday rain, and finish with a sharp cold drop and a mix of rain and snow by Sunday. If you have outdoor plans, you will want a backup plan and a warm coat.

Friday: Warm but Overcast

Friday stays cloudy from morning to night. Temperatures reach the upper 60s in the afternoon and fall into the upper 50s by night. While the clouds remain thick, the day stays dry. Light east winds around 12 mph may gust near 24 mph at times.

Because conditions stay calm, Friday is the most comfortable day of the weekend. Although skies stay gray, the mild air helps evening plans. Roads stay dry, and visibility stays good.

Saturday: Cooler with Steady Rain

Saturday turns wet and much cooler. Daytime highs sit near the low 50s. Morning readings start in the mid-50s but fall through the day. Evening temperatures slip into the mid-40s. Expect widespread rain with about a quarter inch possible.

Winds shift out of the north and climb near 13 mph with higher gusts. Because of the chill and the rain, you will want a jacket and an umbrella. If you plan to drive, expect slower traffic on wet roads. For detailed updates, check our weather page.
