Scattered thunderstorms possible this afternoon

0

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Another round of scattered downpours is coming for Southeast Texas later today.

If you have outdoor plans, especially in the afternoon, be prepared for them to be interrupted for an hour or two when the scattered storms rumble through southeast Texas. Have a place where you could run for cover if a heavy thunderstorms impacts your outdoor plans. A quick 1-3″ could fall in short order, flooding Houston area streets. Sunday’s storms could also trigger some Strong Thunderstorm Alerts with wind gusts over 40 mph and pea size hail.

Is there any triple-digit heat in the forecast?

Not at this time. In fact, we still haven’t hit 100 so far this summer! Next week, the rain faucet should turn off for at least a few days, which should push temperatures back into the upper 90s but still shy of the triple digits.
