Southeast Texas gets a brief break from widespread rain chances through Tuesday, with partly sunny skies and temperatures warming back into the upper 80s.
The next big storm chance arrives late Tuesday night into Wednesday, bringing a higher chance for showers and thunderstorms across the region. Some storms could produce locally heavy rainfall, and we’ll continue monitoring the potential for isolated flooding concerns where repeated downpours develop.

Tuesday’s Forecast:
Tuesday brings another mostly dry day for much of Southeast Texas. We’ll see a mix of sun and clouds with afternoon temperatures climbing into the upper 80s.
A few isolated showers and thunderstorms could develop during the afternoon, but rain coverage should remain limited through most of the day.
Clouds begin increasing Tuesday night as our next weather system approaches from the west. Rain chances will begin increasing late Tuesday night, especially after midnight.
Wednesday’s Wet Forecast:
Wednesday is shaping up to be the most active weather day of the week.
A disturbance moving into Southeast Texas will bring a widespread chance for showers and thunderstorms throughout the day. Deep tropical moisture will also be returning, allowing some storms to produce heavy downpours.
It’s still too early to pin down exact locations or timing, but right now it looks to be in the morning. We’ll be watching for the potential for localized flooding and a few stronger storms as we move closer.
Current forecast rainfall amounts generally range between 1 and 2 inches for many areas, although some isolated spots could pick up locally higher totals where storms repeatedly move over the same location.
10-Day Forecast:
Rain chances should begin decreasing Wednesday night into Thursday, with a less active pattern expected for the second half of the week. It will continue to feel like summertime through the weekend with hot afternoons and pop-up thunderstorm chances.
