Scattered rains last through the holiday weekend.
East Texas (KLTV/KTRE) - Here is a look at the weather where you live: Good morning, East Texas! Our active weather pattern is here to stay for the start of September, meaning more chances for rain over the next several days! This morning we’re starting off with partly to mostly cloudy skies, muggy 70s, and the potential for some patchy fog in low-lying areas. A few showers will be possible through the morning so please be safe while out on your busy Friday morning commute. Better coverage for showers and storms returns to East Texas later this afternoon and evening, meaning some heavy rain and lightning might still be around by kick-off time, so if you’re heading out to any high school football games this Friday, have the rain gear handy and be weather aware. The good news is that with the extra cloud coverage and scattered rains, high for most are set to remain in the upper 80s and low 90s for the final Friday in August! Scattered showers and t’storms will be possible on and off throughout Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, so it is important that you factor in the chance of some heavy downpours and lightning for any outdoor weekend plans. Rain and cooler than average temperatures will continue into early next week with most not hitting 90° through at least next Wednesday/Thursday. Not a bad start to the month of September!!
