Houston is known for its unpredictable weather, and this Christmas is no exception. While many cities are bundling up for a cold winter, Houston is expected to be warm and toasty.<\/p>\n
The National Weather Service predicts that Christmas Day will be a warm one, with highs in the upper 70s and low 80s. This is significantly warmer than the average Houston holiday, which is typically around 20 degrees cooler. "It’s very toasty," says Bradley Brokamp, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service. "We are well above normal temperatures slated for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and obviously the next several days as well."<\/p>\n
The warmest Christmas in southeast Texas was in 2015, when Houston saw a high of 83 degrees. This year’s Christmas could potentially match or even break that record. With temperatures expected to be so high, it’s unlikely that Houston will see any snow this holiday season.<\/p>\n
Instead of snow, there’s a possibility of fog across the region, particularly closer to the Gulf Coast. As Brokamp jokingly put it, "I guess it’s technically a white Christmas, if you’re very loose with the definition of such." While it won’t be a traditional white Christmas, the fog could still make for a unique and memorable holiday.<\/p>\n
While Christmas is expected to be warm, Houston is on track to see a cooldown this Sunday when the final cold front of 2025 hits the city. At that point, temperatures could actually be 5 to 10 degrees below average for that time of year.<\/p>\n
In conclusion, Houston’s weather this Christmas is expected to be warm and foggy, with a potential record-breaking high temperature. While it may not be a traditional winter wonderland, the city’s unique weather is sure to make for an interesting and memorable holiday season. With a cooldown expected later in the week, Houstonians can look forward to a change in weather, even if it’s not the snow they might be hoping for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
