Rounds of rain and storms will be moving in from the west later this morning through the afternoon. The concern with these storms are the speed. The trend over the last few days, have storms slowing down and not moving out of our area quickly. There is a flood watch that starts Thursday morning lasting through Memorial Day. This pattern is with us through at least Tuesday of next week.<\/p>\n<p>Starts Thursday morning lasting through Memorial Day (Copyright 2026 by KPRC Click2Houston &#8211; All rights reserved.)Thursday Morning:<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">After a good soaking with rain totals ranging between 2\u2033- 6\u2033 late Tuesday to Wednesday. our next round arrives Thursday morning. <\/p>\n<p>Showers and storm mainly south of I-10.Friday and beyond: Flood risks and daily breakdown:<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">With the ground already saturated in our southwestern cities, street, stream and river flooding is possible with another round of heavy rain. Placement is key, and so far the Houston area\u2019s rain totals have been manageable. But if too much rain falls in a short amount of time, we could get street flooding in the Houston area. Here\u2019s how the next several days look. <\/p>\n<p>Thursday: Next organized rain arrives late morning to midday, raising the risk of localized flooding.<\/p>\n<p>Friday: Storms expected again in the morning but may be more scattered.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday and Sunday: More waves of heavy rainfall could develop, keeping the flood risk in play.<\/p>\n<p>Memorial Day: Flood watch remains, with another chance for storms and heavier rainfall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Additional rainfall totals are forecast to reach 4 to 5 inches for many areas along the upper Texas coast through Monday. Temperatures are expected to stay mostly in the low to mid-80s. It won\u2019t rain all day long so don\u2019t cancel any plans but be ready to adjust those plans. <\/p>\n<p>An additional 4&#8243;-5&#8243; is expected (Copyright 2026 by KPRC Click2Houston &#8211; All rights reserved.)Memorial Day Weekend:<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">The number one question I\u2019ve received about this upcoming weekend is timing of the rain. Unfortunately, the weather pattern we have isn\u2019t giving us this luxury. We aren\u2019t able to see these small disturbances until 12 to 24 hours before the rain starts. Stay tuned, we\u2019ll continue to update our forecast and tell you as soon as we see what\u2019s coming next. <\/p>\n<p>Memorial Weekend (Copyright 2025 by KPRC Click2Houston &#8211; All rights reserved.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">7-Day Forecast: <\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">This active pattern should stay with us through at least Tuesday. The hope is next week we head into a hit and miss afternoon storm pattern and not the widespread daily flood threat. We\u2019ll keep you posted. <\/p>\n<p>What to expect through Wednesday of next week (Copyright 2026 by KPRC Click2Houston &#8211; All rights reserved.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Have you captured a dramatic rain photo or video?
