As the front approaches, more areas from the Brazos Valley into greater Houston will see scattered thunderstorms. Some of those could drop a quick 1-2″ and also have the ability to see some strong winds.
While this will NOT be a repeat of Tuesday’s severe weather, some storms could get aggressive so there is a slight risk of not only a severe storm but of some isolated street flooding.

After this weekend, the rain sticks around. A series of storm systems will move through southeast Texas every day through Thursday morning of next week.
