Are you ready for a blast of cooler air and some rowdy storms?
For about three weeks, we dealt with warmer than average temperatures across Houston. But as we get closer to Spring, things are getting interesting. Here's a timeline of what you can expect with the increasing threat for severe weather for Houston and the rest of SE Texas.
Thursday Afternoon - We should top out near 80 degrees Thursday afternoon as strong southerly winds pump up much warmer air and increase the moisture over the area. Expect Scattered rain and some rumbles of thunder during Thursday afternoon. A few storms could be strong, but the main severe threat should move in late Thursday night into early Friday. It will be windy Thursday PM with south winds of 15-25 mph and gusts near 30-35 mph.
Models are indicating 1-3" of rain possible with the highest risk for flooding staying just north of Houston. Areas farther north such as Huntsville and Livingston will have the biggest flood threat. Remember, always avoid driving across any flooded roads and find an alternate route!
