HOUSTON — It's been another day of heavy rain and storms around Southeast Texas, as parts of the Houston area are under water.
Current watches and warnings
- A Flood Warning is in effect for the following counties: Harris, Liberty and Montgomery until 5 p.m.
- A Flash Watch is in effect for Brazos, Burleson, Coastal Harris, Grimes, Houston, Inland, Harris, Madison, Montgomery, Northern Liberty, Polk, San Jacinto, Southern Liberty, Trinity, Walker, Waller and Washington until Friday afternoon.
These storms moved in from the west and have produced very heavy rainfall, damaging wind gusts, and even an isolated tornado.
As a result, the Weather Prediction Center from NOAA has placed areas north of the city under a level 3 out of 4 for flash flood potential. This area is very saturated from the heavy rain over the weekend, so any additional rainfall will easily lead to flooding.
Additionally, the Storm Prediction Center has highlighted some of Southeast Texas under a slight risk (level 2 out of 5) for the chance to see severe storms with damaging wind gusts being the primary concern.
More storms are possible on Friday as well, before drier conditions arrive for the weekend. By next week, a summer preview will arrive with a string of 90-degree days possible after Monday.
