HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Scattered showers and storms are ongoing once again Sunday after portions of Southeast Texas picked up several inches of rain with reports of penny size hail too. Due to a lower overall severe weather and flood threat today, the ABC13 Weather Watch has been dropped, but it’s still a good idea to take it nice and slow on the slick roadways.
Rainfall reports across Harris County range from half an inch to upwards of 4 inches of rain falling within about 3 to 4 hours Saturday evening. While Sunday’s few showers and storms won’t produce as torrential rains as what we witnessed Saturday night, any additional rainfall in already rain-soaked areas could keep some streets and low-lying areas with ponding through the day Sunday. Otherwise, Sunday will be a damp, humid and cloudy day with morning lows in the mid-upper 60s and afternoon highs only reaching the mid-upper 70s.
When could it rain during Spring Break?
A more powerful storm system will plow through Texas around Wednesday, bringing another round of high rain chances. This weather system will pose a greater risk of severe weather, which includes the possibility of tornadoes. After it clears out, we should have delightful weather for the remainder of Spring Break with lots of sunshine, low humidity, and temperatures more in line with March than May.
Are we expecting any more frosty mornings this winter season?
Not at this time. While we can’t 100% rule out another run at frosty weather later in March or even April, odds favor those who want to start tending to their garden beds. We might make it into the 40s behind the cold front arriving during Spring Break, but that shouldn’t pose a threat to tropical plants.
