Climate and weather information
During last week’s cold spell I found myself repeatedly checking forecasts hoping for a better answer. After all with weather forecasts, if you don’t like the forecast check back and it’ll change. They never did get to a pleasing state. Here are some useful weather sites for the Woodlands and Houston areas.
National Weather Forecast Office for Houston & Galvestion has ten years of daily climate information. This includes high and low temperatures, rain and wind information.
Climate Information, Houston has monthly averages, with days below freezing, about 90′, heating and cooling degree day information.
Harris County Homeland Security has rain fall maps for Harris county and some surrounding areas.
National Hurricane Center tracks hurricanes, maps, wind speed, landfall probabilities for all storms.
