HOUSTON – Houston faces another threat of severe weather overnight Tuesday and into Wednesday morning. The strongest storms are forecast to hit between 3 a.m. and 5 a.m., which could make the morning commute messy.

The system carries the potential for damaging winds, with the possibility of tornadoes on the edge of the line of storms. Localized heavy rainfall is also possible, which can lead to street flooding.

Flood Tracker

KPRC has data on current flood conditions whenever you need it on Click2Houston.com/FloodTracker (KPRC 2 / Click2Houston.com)

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

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

KPRC 2′s expert meteorologists have flood gauge maps they can use to show you 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.
