Comedy Club Stand-up and Collegiate Football Matchups
Houston enters the weekend with a Great rating for event richness, though umbrella-weather is expected across all three days. The city's indoor theaters and stadiums offer a high volume of comedy sets and college football games to help navigate the rainy forecast.
Expect consistent showers and thunderstorms with highs reaching 90 degrees and lows near 72. The best window for any outdoor activity is early Sunday morning, which offers the coolest temperatures of the weekend.
