Texas Weather: 02-21-2026

Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Texas Weather Podcast. It's Saturday, February 24th, and folks, late February is handing us a gift today. Step outside and you'll feel it. The Gulf Coast is leading the charge at 64 degrees with light southwest winds around 5 miles an hour. Here's the thing though. Air quality sits at moderate, so if you've got sensitive lungs, maybe keep the jog short. Slide over to South Texas and you're seeing 62 degrees. Calm. Pleasant. The kind of morning where your coffee tastes better on the porch. Central Texas comes in cooler at 55 degrees, still mild for this time of year. Up in North Texas? You've got 52 degrees. Nobody's complaining about that in February. Tonight the skies go crystal clear. Lows dip to the mid 40s along the coast. Head north and you'll settle into the upper 30s. Light winds, quiet night. Perfect sleeping weather if you crack a window. Tomorrow brings more of the same. Sunny skies push highs back into the 50s and 60s statewide. If you've been putting off yard work, the weather just ran out of excuses for you. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. This mild stretch isn't going anywhere. Sunny skies hold through midweek with temperatures steady or nudging even warmer. No storms lurking. No cold fronts crashing the party. Just a slow, steady march toward spring. And one more sweet detail. Sunrise hit 7:07 this morning. Sunset rolls in at 6:25 tonight. That's nearly eleven hours and eighteen minutes of daylight. We're gaining almost two minutes every single day now. You'll want to soak that up. Alright. If this forecast made your Saturday a little easier, share it with a neighbor who could use the heads up. Stay safe out there. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
