Houston is a coastal city. It is surrounded by water to the southeast and flat plains to the northwest. The Gulf of Mexico is a large body of water. It has a significant influence on the weather in Houston.

The flat plains to the northwest allow winds to blow freely. These winds often carry dry air from the north. The combination of dry air and the Gulf's moisture creates weather patterns. These patterns include frequent thunderstorms and heavy rainfall.
