.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 317 PM CDT Wed Oct 10 2018/ 

Mid afternoon skies are partly to mostly cloudy generally to the 
north of a Livingston to Conroe to Sealy line and mostly sunny to 
the south. Expecting to see a general decreasing cloud trend for 
the rest of the afternoon and on into the evening as drier air 
continues to filter into the area from the north and northwest 
behind the cold front. With weak high pressure building into the 
area from the north, it will be quiet and dry with cool nights 
around here for the remainder of the week. Over the weekend, look 
for warming temperatures and increasing humidities as an onshore 
flow comes back. Low rain chances are back in the forecast across 
parts of the area (mainly north) Saturday and Saturday night as 
moisture levels begin to rise, and slightly higher chances come on
Sunday ahead of the area's next cold front. Our next cooldown 
comes with the passage of this front some time late Sunday 
afternoon through late Sunday night or early Monday morning with 
breezy conditions possible (especially near the coast) in its 
wake. 42
