Houston Faces Near-100 Degree Heat Into Next Week, Slight Weekend Rain Chance

Houston recorded its second 100-degree day of the summer, with additional 100-degree readings possible and near-100 temperatures expected to continue into next week [1]. No records are considered at risk, and 2026 is currently outside the top 10 hottest Houston summers on record, which would make it the first summer since 2021 to fall short of that list [1]. Forecasters noted a slight chance of rain over the weekend for some areas, and the post included energy-saving tips from Reliant [1].
