Houston is bracing for a significant weather shift as a powerful storm system approaches, bringing a distinct cold front through Texas. According to the Houston Chronicle, this system is expected to bring storms and a risk of flooding, especially in Southeast Texas. The cold front will cause a noticeable drop in temperatures, a stark contrast to the recent unseasonable heat that saw temperatures rise into the low 90s°F (32°C). The forecast indicates that temperatures may struggle to reach the 60s°F (15°C) to low 70s°F (21°C) by Friday afternoon, with weekend highs likely remaining in the 70s°F (21°C).
