HOUSTON \u2013 Rain for some, not all \u2014 it\u2019s one of my favorite sayings, especially here in Houston.<\/p>\n
WATCH HERE: <\/p>\n
We\u2019re tracking rain in our forecast on Thursday but not everyone gets rain, and since we have rain in our forecast this week \u201aI thought I\u2019d break it down below.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what that really means according to the NWS: <\/p>\n
Isolated: Rain for a select few, but not all. NWS typically ties this to low probabilities (around 10-20%), meaning only small, scattered pockets of the area see rain \u2014 most locations stay dry.<\/p>\n
Scattered: Rain for some, not all.<\/p>\n
This aligns with NWS \u201cchance\u201d forecasts where showers or storms cover roughly 30-60% of the area. More people will see rain than with isolated activity, but plenty of spots will miss out completely.<\/p>\n
Widespread: Rain for the majority. When coverage is high (often 80%+ of the area), NWS and local offices describe it as widespread, numerous, or simply \u201crain\u201d \u2014 meaning most people in the region should expect to get wet at some point.<\/p>\n
Thursday\u2019s Forecast: We\u2019re tracking a morning low of 64 with a high of 82 – so still make sure to dress your kids in layers again. <\/p>\n

Thursday: Isolated\/scattered – so rain for some not all. <\/p>\n
Here is the timing and location (as of tonight) which could change but at least sets the tome for Thursday:<\/p>\n
8 AM – 10 AM: Spotty to scattered isolated showers for folks on the west side like El Campo. Columbus and Sealy<\/p>\n

1 pm – 3 pm: The pattern is still the same but just isolated cells look just a little bigger.<\/p>\n
