Tracking a Cold Front:
Spotty to scattered showers are possible Monday morning through Monday afternoon, and we still can’t rule out a few thunderstorms. Activity begins to ramp up Monday night as a cold front approaches.
Ahead of the front, it is breezy. The winds are so agitated that the onshore flow is leading to coastal flood advisories through Tuesday morning. If you are along the coast, beware that there may be coastal and street flooding.
There will be enough energy to spark strong to severe thunderstorms across SE Texas. The main impacts will be gusty winds and heavy downpours. The greatest chance for severe storms will be mainly north of Houston, where the threat level is 2/5.
The front will continue to move east into Tuesday morning, making for a soggy start to Election Day.
Tropical Outlook:
Potential Tropical Cyclone 18 has the chance to form into a tropical storm on Monday. Once it forms, it will be named Rafael. The storm is forecasted to move into the Gulf of Mexico late this week.
The next area of development is north of Puerto Rico and Hispaniola. This wave has a 10% chance of developing over the next seven days.
10-day Forecast:
The early week cold front will help tame temperatures Tuesday keeping highs in the 70s. Late week rain chances are far from a wash out.
