National Weather Service forecasts and major models like GFS and ECMWF show a strong consensus for Houston's highest temperature on May 4 exceeding 68°F, with projected highs near 82°F under a ridge of high pressure bringing sunny skies and light winds. Recent heavy thunderstorms and a Flood Watch through May 2 have suppressed temperatures amid cloudy, rainy conditions, but the departing low-pressure system will allow ample solar heating and subsidence aloft starting Sunday. This positioning aligns with May climatology, where normal highs at Houston's Intercontinental Airport average 83°F, far above the threshold. Realistic challenges include a stalled front prolonging clouds or an unforeseen cool air surge, though model ensembles assign low probability; watch NWS updates twice daily for refinements ahead of resolution based on official observations.
