    Houston weather for Tuesday

    Isolated Street Flooding:

    While we are not expecting a widespread outbreak of severe storms or flooding, isolated spots, especially along and north of I-10 could receive 3-4″ of rain, so street flooding is possible from midday today through early Wednesday. 1-2″ of rain should be common with a few streaks of 3-4″.

    Chilly Air On The Way:

    A cold front will move through Wednesday afternoon that will sweep the rain and fog away and bring a few chillier days. It won’t be frigid and freezing temps aren’t likely, but for Thursday and Valentine’s Day Friday, expect lows in the 40s with chilly winds. Highs could be stuck in the 50s on Thursday and 60s on Friday. A few isolated showers are possible as well.

    More Rain This Weekend:

    A line of storms could kick off the holiday weekend with a few heavy downpours on Saturday. That system should move through fairly quickly and will be followed by more chilly air. Lows could fall into the upper 30s and low 40s on Sunday morning and a very light freeze is possible on Monday (Presidents Day) morning.

    Houston residents should be prepared for scattered rain and heavy downpours on Tuesday, as a weather system moves through the area. The National Weather Service is forecasting periods of showers throughout the day, with the potential for localized flooding in low-lying areas.

    It’s important to stay weather aware and take precautions if you have to be out and about. Remember to drive carefully, as roads may be slick, and never attempt to drive through flooded areas. Keep an eye on local news and weather updates for the latest information on the forecast.

    A storm moving across the U.S. is forecast to impact millions of Americans, bringing the potential for dangerous travel conditions, significant snow and strong winds.

    The system, which is heading eastward after providing wildfire-ravaged Southern California with some much-needed precipitation, is bringing winter weather and rain across the Southwest on Tuesday. It will continue to move east hitting nearly every region and bringing weather changes to more than 300 million.

    “We aren’t done with isolated rainfall activity just yet as chances for precipitation will persist into Wednesday,” forecasters in Arizona’s capital city of Phoenix wrote.

    Showers had impacted the Phoenix metro area on Monday.

    Spotty rain and snow are forecast to spread through the region and the Intermountain West, with wintry travel expected along interstates in Arizona and Utah, according to forecasting company AccuWeather.

    As many as six inches of snow could fall from Tuesday night through Thursday in New Mexico and in Colorado’s higher elevations.

    At least a few inches of snow is projected over the Rockies, and a wintry mix could last into the end of the week and over parts of the High Plains.

    Snow squalls, brief periods of heavy snowfall with low visibility and reduced winds, from another system are possible through Wednesday for the Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, New England and Northeast, according to the National Weather Service.

    To the south and east of the storm’s track, rain is projected, resulting in potential flooding. Some areas from Texas to Kentucky could see as many as 7 inches of downpours.

    “Rain will fall in an area of the South Central states that has experienced well-below-historical-average precipitation this month,” AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Courtney Travis said in a statement. “San Antonio and Austin are both in an extreme drought. The area could use the rain, but too much rain too quickly could lead to flooding concerns.”

    There’s also a risk of severe thunderstorms, including hail and power winds in Texas on Thursday.

    To the north, snow and ice are possible in the Midwest and Northeast by the end of the week.

    “Depending on its track, the storm on Friday may bring snow or a wintry mix as far north as Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland in the Midwest,” Travis said.



    Get ready, because the next major winter storm is on its way to the United States and it’s set to impact a staggering 300 million people with heavy downpours and snow. This powerful storm is expected to bring a mix of rain, snow, and gusty winds to a large portion of the country, causing travel disruptions and potentially dangerous conditions.

    Meteorologists are warning residents to prepare for the worst as this storm system moves across the country, bringing with it the potential for flooding, icy roadways, and power outages. From the Midwest to the Northeast, millions of Americans are bracing themselves for the impact of this winter weather event.

    If you live in an area that will be affected by this storm, make sure you take precautions to stay safe and warm. Stock up on supplies, check your emergency kit, and monitor local weather forecasts for updates on the storm’s progress. And most importantly, stay off the roads if conditions become hazardous.

    As we hunker down and wait for this winter storm to pass, let’s all come together to support one another and stay safe during this challenging time. Stay warm, stay dry, and stay safe, everyone. Let’s weather this storm together.
