HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — We continue our ABC13 Weather Watch Thursday for the possibility of flooding rains and gusty winds in our coastal counties. By the weekend we will be dry as our first taste of “Fall-ish” air blows in behind a cool front, but next week we will have to keep an eye on the Gulf as another tropical low spins up over the Bay of Campeche.
Due to the threat of heavy rain for our coastline on top of what’s already fallen over the last week, the National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch for our coastal counties through 7 a.m. Friday. These counties could pick up between 3-6″ of rain on Thursday as heavy storms train one after another around the low over the Gulf.
Most of the rain will fall south of I-10 in the morning, but in the afternoon we’ll see an uptick of scattered heavy showers norther of I-10. Any heavy rain shower could drop a quick inch of rain leading to minor street flooding.
With the extra cloud cover and rain, temperatures should only top out in the mid to upper 80s for much of SE Texas.
