Weather Forecast
The ERCOT Weather Forecast is developed by ERCOT Meteorologists Chris Coleman, Mia Montgomery, Brandon Gale, and Christi Eastham. The interactive map displays today’s temperature information for major cities located within the ERCOT grid. Hover over a city to see the most recent temperature forecast.
Note: A Weather Zone is a geographic region designated by ERCOT in which climatological characteristics are similar for all areas within such region. This map displays the various Weather Zones that exist within the ERCOT footprint, but it does not necessarily include all counties that have participation within the ERCOT market.
Weather Forecast Details
General Discussion:
Temperatures are moderating and will return to near-normal levels briefly Thursday ahead of the next cold front. Colder again on the weekend, but unlikely to match the cold intensities from last weekend into the start of this week. Still sorting out the exact timing of the late-week front as well as the intensity of the cold air behind it. This weekend's cold period will be short-lived, as temperatures should trend back to normal by next Monday. Not much is expected in the way of precipitation over the next seven days, likely limited to along the Texas Gulf Coast between late-Thursday and early-Friday.
Today:
An area of high-level clouds will spread across most of the state today before exiting tonight. Otherwise, warmer today, with most of the state topping out in the 40s this afternoon. Warmer 50s and 60s in South Texas. Not as cold tonight, but most of the state will again fall below freezing, with exceptions in South Texas.
Tomorrow:
A mix of clouds and sunshine across Texas on Wednesday, with increasing clouds overnight into Thursday morning. Trending warmer again tomorrow, with highs mostly in the 40s and 50s. Warmer 60s to near 70 in South Texas. Fewer locations will freeze tomorrow night.
