SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chris Ramirez reports that NOAA’s winter Outlook predicts warmer and drier conditions for Southeast Texas, aligning with broader trends in the South Central US. Typically, January is Houston’s coldest month, but temperatures are expected to be above average with highs around 64 degrees. From December to February, below-average precipitation is anticipated, linked to the emerging La Niña pattern. Current drought conditions are moderate to severe across Southeast Texas, with expectations for persistence of these dry conditions from October through January. Over the next week, dry weather is likely, with highs in the 80s and lows in the 60s.

After a wet start to the year, the NOAA Winter Outlook said drought conditions might persist through February.

SUMMARY: The execution of Texas death row inmate Robert Roberson is in limbo after a Travis County judge issued a temporary restraining order. Roberson, convicted in 2002 of killing his 2-year-old daughter, was set to be executed, but a bipartisan group of lawmakers subpoenaed him to testify next week, questioning the validity of the evidence against him. A civil court judge supported the subpoena, while the US Supreme Court denied a last-minute attempt to halt the execution. Lawmakers raised doubts about the original scientific basis for the conviction, prompting further investigations and protests outside the state prison.

A Travis County judge has issued a temporary injunction that could delay the controversial execution of Robert Roberson. Roberson would be the first person in the U.S. executed for a murder conviction tied to the diagnosis of shaken baby syndrome.
