Ozone pollution problems continue Friday

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK)-- Drier air will only allow a small possibility for rain Friday. Sunny skies, hot temps, and light winds will allow ozone to form and give us bad air quality.
Friday is likewise another ozone action day. Ozone is a lung irritant that can set off asthma attacks in delicate individuals as it restricts airways. Coughing and scratchy throats are other symptoms of ozone exposure.
You might likewise see a gray haze in the sky from smoke particles suspended high up in the atmosphere. This is really smoke from the wildfires over Canada, and it might linger through the vacation weekend.
Any possibility for rain this weekend?
Our rain chance drops to less than 20% for Friday and Saturday as the environment dries out a heat and a bit ridge attempts to build in. Enough wetness will return Sunday for a 20% chance for rain.
How is the weather looking for Memorial Day?
Memorial Day weekend looks hot (surprise!), but it now looks like we will have a better opportunity for rain (30%) as disturbances roll overhead. The day after Memorial Day, Tuesday, will more than likely be the wettest day of the next 10 with a 40% opportunity.
