Storms roar back into Houston’s forecast Thursday: These tools from KPRC can help you stay prepared

HOUSTON – After a two-day break, the Houston area faces another threat of severe weather Thursday.

The KPRC 2 Storm Tracker team says similar to other recent storm systems, this one brings a high flood threat in our northern communities. Damaging winds and hail are also possible for all of southeast Texas, including Houston.

From weather watches and warnings and hour-by-hour forecasts to road conditions and preparations you should make at your home or office, here’s how KPRC 2 can help.

KPRC 2 has partnered with the Harris County Flood Control District to better serve our community during severe weather events.

Any time there’s significant rainfall in the Houston area, you can see exactly which neighborhoods are experiencing the greatest impact at Click2Houston.com/floodtracker.

Our expert meteorologists have flood gauge maps they use to illustrate current conditions. When all the gauges are green, we’re in great shape. When gauges start to change to yellow and red, water is rising. This is an easy, visual way to see when and where people and property are most at risk of flooding.
