This year's Juneteenth celebrations from Houston to Galveston and beyond could include rain and even storms. If you have outdoor plans, you shouldn't have to preemptively cancel them. Let's dive into when and where storms are most likely to occur Thursday.

Overall, rain chances will be up-and-down as we go through the next week. Look for spotty to scattered storms on Juneteenth during the afternoon with lower rain chances returning Friday and Saturday.

While most of the day will be dry, scattered downpours or a brief thunderstorm could pop up in the afternoon, especially during peak heating. If you’re heading to outdoor events or celebrations, it’s a good idea to pack the umbrella just in case.
