    The southern half of Mississippi River will experience moderate to major flooding in the days ahead, albeit well under levels seen in other flood events in recent years. But the addition of potentially significant rainfall in portions of the Mid-South this weekend (Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas) could add to Lower Mississippi flooding risks.

    As a meteorologist, weather in general fascinates me. I worked two years in California about 15 years ago, and when I took that job, everyone teased me, saying the weather was “so easy” to forecast. And, yes, about 80 percent of the year, conditions are pretty stable overall. There is nuance to that. Most people may not realize a minor difference in temperature from day to day, but it’s something that can be reflected in power usage.

    In brief: Sunshine for days in Houston. To be honest, there is very little to discuss with respect to Houston’s weather forecast. We expect sunshine, warm and dry weather, and some ground ozone/air quality issues in the mornings and evenings over the next few days. Highs will be in the 80s with lows in the 50s and 60s. Beginning around Sunday, we’ll add some more humidity to the mix and slightly hotter weather with highs near 90 degrees by Monday and lows in the 60s.

    Late last week, the team at Colorado State University issued their always hotly anticipated seasonal hurricane outlook for the Atlantic Basin. To clear this up at the beginning, their forecast calls for:17 named storms (normal 14)9 hurricanes (normal 7)4 major hurricanes (normal 3)Accumulated cyclone energy: 155 (normal 123)Nothing about this forecast on the surface is especially notable or alarming or fascinating. It’s simply a slightly above average forecast.

    In brief: Other than some periods of poor air quality, the forecast for Houston is about as perfect for springtime as it gets with sunshine and low humidity through the weekend. This is really going to extend an incredible stretch of sunny weather here in Houston. Very few clouds are expected over the next 5 days, with sunshine each day. You will see and hear about air quality advisories.
