Flood Threat Next Week:

Starting Monday SE Texas moves into a storm track and it may be tough to get out of it. It appears we’ll get round after round of rain falling almost every day through the end of the week. We already have a moderate flood threat Monday. Our long range models also are showing a tremendous amount of rain through Thursday. We’ll keep you posted on this very important forecast.

10-Day forecast:

We are forecasting warm temperatures with daily rain chances next week. Plan on extra time for driving as flooding rainfall will certainly be possible. If you have flexibility to work from home, Monday would be a good day to stay off the roads.

Rain chances are likely next week. (Copyright 2024 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)
