Weather Alert: Severe weather still possible for tonight
Another line of storms is pushing through to the coast.
HOUSTON — We’re tracking severe weather across southeast Texas this evening.
Some northern counties have already seen heavy rain, strong winds and hail.
The counties north and west of Harris County, like Austin, Montgomery, and Polk, are more likely to see the worst of the severe weather and could get as much as 2 inches of rain Friday evening.
Other areas should anticipate half an inch to an inch of rain, which is much needed after the drought-like conditions we have been experiencing.
No widespread flooding is expected but some areas may see some standing water from fast-falling rain.
WHAT TO EXPECT FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
- Friday through 11 p.m. – In the counties north and west of Harris County, we have seen heavy shower activity, and some of those storms have produced small hail. Some of these areas could even see large, damaging hail and gusty winds. Signs of rotation are possible with any of those storms, but the chance of seeing a tornado develop are low for Harris County. North and east of Houston, there is a higher change of seeing storms with the capacity to produce a tornado. The tornado watch is up in effect until 9 PM tonight
- Saturday 7 a.m. – Any scattered showers left will fade away by sunrise. Should see sunny skies and have a drier feeling in the air for the rest of the day. Sunday looks delightful!
