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:
The big weather story over the next several days will be the continuation of well above-normal temperatures for the vast majority of the state. For Friday, expect similar high temperatures as Thursday with widespread 80s in the forecast and plenty of afternoon sunshine. Temperatures will gradually build over the weekend and into early next week, with mid-to-upper 80s in the forecast for much of the ERCOT region by Monday and Tuesday. Changes arrive by the middle of next week, however, as rain chances pick up ahead of a cold front arriving later in the week. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms will be possible on Wednesday and Thursday in particular, with the highest rainfall totals currently projected to fall across Northeast Texas.
Today:
Morning fog and low level cloud cover across South Central Texas will lead way to more afternoon sunshine across the state. Unseasonably warm, with highs in the 80s. Warmer across the Rio Grande Valley.
This Weekend:
Morning fog and low level cloud cover in spots, followed by more afternoon sunshine across the state. Unseasonably warm, with lows in the 50s and 60s followed by highs in the 80s. Warmer across the Rio Grande Valley.
