(00:00:00) Todays weather in Houston Texas - Friday - 15 May 2026 (00:00:29) Ozone Action Day What It Means (00:01:07) What to Wear Thursday (00:01:44) Humidity Building Late Week (00:02:21) Weekend Rain Incoming (00:02:56) Commute and Week Ahead Watchpoints Houston's Thursday forecast comes with a headline you need to know: an Ozone Action Day is in effect, meaning ground-level ozone is at levels that affect anyone with asthma or respiratory sensitivities. Temperatures are climbing into the low 90s under clear skies, with rain chances at just ten percent — a dry, clean commute morning, but a punishing afternoon sun.If you or someone in your household has a respiratory condition, keep outdoor exertion low, especially in the afternoon when ozone peaks. For everyone else, it's a heads-up worth having before you schedule that lunchtime run or backyard time.On the wardrobe front: light, breathable fabrics are essential today. Linen or light cotton, nothing dark. Sunscreen is non-negotiable — there's zero cloud cover to give you a break. Leave the jacket at home and keep water on you.The bigger shift is building quietly. Nighttime lows are rising toward the upper 70s, and Houston's signature thick, heavy humidity is locking in for the rest of the week. Today is actually one of the more comfortable days left — the nineties are still the nineties, but the muggy layer that follows will make it feel considerably worse.Looking ahead to the weekend: coastal moisture is pushing north, and rain returns Saturday into Sunday. Saturday morning is your safer window if you have outdoor plans. After that, keep flexibility in your schedule — meaningful rainfall is possible, and next week's heat, humidity, and storm potential are all worth watching closely.Stay hydrated, wear sunscreen, and check in on anyone sensitive to air quality today.
