It's very damp in the air. The front should have a nasty line ahead of it later today.

I was wondering the same thing..last yr we had a pretty decent cold fall..then when winter came it barely got cold at all

Front is through already. Passed my place at about 6:20 this morning when I was at a very comfortable 70 degrees. Down to 57 now. We should see some showers and maybe a little thunder with the 850mb front this afternoon but nothing major.

Where’s the rain at? I thought it would be raining off and on all day today. Big chance of rain and nothing has come out of it.

Lull for now - this was the update a couple of hours ago:

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
1039 AM CDT Wed Oct 30 2019

.DISCUSSION...

SHORT TERM [Today Through Tonight]...
Updated grids/forecast this morning to account for the frontal
boundary position and some timing adjustments to the pops. The
leading edge of the NW wind shift is just south of Matagorda Bay
to near LBX to GLS Bay. There is quite a gradient with temps
across the area, with Caldwell at 47 and Galveston at 78. The
front should move through Galveston in about an hour. Much of the area will see somewhat of a break in the rain from now through early afternoon, but around mid afternoon expect showers and isolated thunderstorms to develop and expand in coverage as the 850 mb front moves in and across the area this eve. Later today we will be issuing a wind advisory for coastal areas with strong northerly winds expected overnight. Wood

Light winds and clear skies Friday morning may well bring 30's into Metro Houston. Gardner's be aware!
Canadian joins NAM in bringing the freezing temps to CLL tomorrow night. A frosty but clear Halloween night placing that 30°F record in sight.

Progressive pattern after the weekend.
