FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HOUSTON/GALVESTON TX
1211 PM CST THU JAN 22 2026
DISCUSSION
FOG, DENSE IN SPOTS PARTICULARLY NEAR THE COAST, CAN BE EXPECTED AGAIN
TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY MORNING. EXPECT A COLD, ARCTIC AIRMASS TO
BEGIN SPILLING INTO THE AREA SATURDAY AND PERSIST THROUGH
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. WHILE THIS WILL FIRST BE ACCOMPANIED BY
RAIN SHOWERS, THERE WILL BE A TRANSITION TO FREEZING RAIN AND PERHAPS
EVEN SOME SLEET BEFORE PRECIPITATION COMES TO AN END ON SUNDAY.
THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR ICE ACCUMULATION WILL BE NORTH OF THE
HOUSTON METRO, WHERE THE QUESTION IS MORE A MATTER OF HOW MUCH
ACCUMULATION THERE WILL BE THAN IF THERE WILL BE ANY. HOWEVER,
LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS OF ICE ARE POSSIBLE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE
COAST.
