Houston weather: Cold Monday morning, warming into low 60s by afternoon

Spring begins at 4:24 p.m. today with the "vernal equinox" taking place, but it will still feel a bit like winter today with temps running 15 degrees below average. A warming trend will begin tonight with the return of a southeast breeze, so look for 50s tonight, 70s tomorrow, then right back in the 80s by mid-week. Watch for a round of rain on Friday with severe weather possible, especially well north of Houston.
