00:04We've seen a lot of it all week long
00:06But we started the week off very hot a sizzling start to the week with high temperatures
00:10Well into the 90s Monday and Tuesday record high set both days Mondays high got up to 99
00:15Tuesdays high in Houston got up to 98 degrees
00:17We fell to the 40s this morning the result of a cold front coming through as a cold this morning
00:22We've seen the Houston area in nearly six months
00:25So the heat that's gone for now you get a break from the heat much needed break
00:28We probably put the pool season behind us for this year
00:31Now we need some rain across the state desperately need some rain according to the US drought monitor report that came out on Thursday a
00:37Little more than half the state of Texas is at least a moderate drought. So some rain is needed
00:42Unfortunately the forecast I looked at all the way through the weekend through Sunday is not calling for any substantial rain
