Houston to Start June with Heat and Humidity, Storms Expected Midweek
Houston is kicking off June with high temperatures and elevated humidity levels, as daytime highs climb into the 90s°F (32-37°C) and heat index values approach or exceed 100°F (38°C). According to the Houston Chronicle, isolated showers and thunderstorms may develop Monday afternoon, particularly near and south of Interstate 10, though most areas are expected to remain dry. By midweek, rain chances are forecast to increase as upper-level disturbances move across Southeast Texas, bringing scattered afternoon storms. While widespread severe weather is not anticipated, some storms could produce heavy rainfall, frequent lightning, and gusty winds. This pattern aligns with broader June forecasts for Texas, which predict warmer-than-average conditions but periodic rainfall opportunities.
