HOUSTON – As a cold front sinks further to the SE Texas coastline, most of the activity has slowed down for Houston proper.
Areas to our north and west have seen a second line starting to move in.
This includes portions of northwest Harris County, southwestern Montgomery County, the northeast corner of Waller County.
A few storms have formed over Colorado County as well, moving into Columbus and along SH-90.
These storms are quickly moving to the east. Frequent lightning and heavy rain are expected with this line of storms.

Timeline:
5 - 6 pm: As the cold front nears, a line of strong storms form ahead of the front. These storms become more organized through the evening.
7 - 8 pm: The line moves through the Houston metro, stretching from Polk and Liberty Counties to the southwest down to Brazoria and Matagorda Counties.
A few of these storms can be on the stronger side, packing strong winds and hail.
9 - 10 pm: The line of storms continues pushing to the north and east, as most of us are dry by the evening hours.
Storms are still possible for Chambers, Liberty and Polk Counties through the 9 and 10 pm hours.
11 pm: As we get later into the evening, most of the storms should be out of the area as the cold front continues to sag further to the south and east, and we’ll be in the clear as we head into Sunday.
