Flood threat starts Wednesday night:

Here’s why this is a potential flood threat, mainly Thursday and Friday: We have a constant stream of moisture from the subtropical jet stream coming in from the Pacific Ocean. We have a cool front that stalls right over southeast Texas Wednesday morning. This translates to wave after wave of rain. Thursday and Friday look like the days with the most widespread and heaviest rain. Four-day rain totals range from 3″-8″.
