Wednesday’s Forecast:

A cold front moves in Wednesday morning. There may be enough energy with the storms to create severe weather and street flooding. Damaging winds, a tornado or two and hail are possible as the cold front moves in. The timing is 2am for our northwestern counties, 3-4am across Houston metro, 5-6am along the coast. Storms will come in fast with strong to damaging winds of 40mph+ along with heavy rain along the line.

Storms will continue to pound across the coast by sunrise

Rainfall Totals:

The cold front will come with heavy rain arriving Wednesday morning. Most of us will get a range of 1-2″ but some isolated spots could see higher amounts and those areas could get street flooding. However, we’re not anticipating widespread flooding potential because of the speed of the cold front coming through.
