Today’s forecast:

HOUSTON – We’re tracking a series of “short waves” or small areas of low pressure that will bring more rain to southeast Texas. The timing for storms is now through the early evening.

We could get stronger thunderstorms this afternoon with a low threat for severe weather.

Tuesday’s flood threat:

Tuesday, we have our first widespread flood threat with heavy downpours possible. This type of weather pattern will repeat itself every day through our weekend.

And more rain Wednesday:

We are expecting more heavy rainfall Wednesday. It will not be a total washout, but any storms that move through could quickly drop several inches of rain.

The flood threat is still with us Wednesday with a low threat for most of SE Texas. Remember it only takes one thunderstorm to produce flash flooding, so stay weather aware.

Between now and Wednesday we can see up to 5-6″ of rain. This would leave our ground saturated and increase the flood threat through the weekend (where we still will see rain chances daily.)

10-day Forecast:

With the rain Tuesday and Wednesday, temperatures may not get out of the 70s for some. More heavy rain is possible this upcoming weekend. And don’t forget Mother’s Day Sunday.
