Sunday’s Forecast:
Brace for another round of heavy downpours this afternoon into evening, from noon to 7 PM, as we’re caught between two high-pressure systems fueling a stormy Sunday. While Houston itself isn’t under a flood watch, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio are under flood watches until 7 PM tonight. A marginal flash flood risk covers parts of our viewing area, including Katy, Bush, Brenham, The Woodlands, and Conroe
Flood Watch: San Antonio and Austin areas:
Flood watch in effect through 7 PM Sunday. Locally heavy rainfall could trigger flash flooding across portions of south-central Texas. A weak upper-level system combined with above-normal moisture may lead to heavy localized rainfall and rapid runoff.
Rainfall Totals: Most areas can expect 2–4 inches, but isolated storms could dump 9–12 inches in areas with saturated soils, particularly Kerr County, which has already been hit hard.
Dallas/Fort Worth: Flood watch in effect until 7 PM tonight, with rainfall totals of 1–3 inches and isolated storms potentially producing 4–6 inches.
Here is what we are watching and tracking in our area - we could get another .10″ of rain, however isolated thunderstorms could produce more rain today.
We’re tracking another chance of downpours as we sit between two high-pressure systems, fueling a stormy Sunday, for some not all.
The best way to think about why we’ll see rain chances increase is to think of the jet stream as a rope. With high pressure dominating west and east of us, it pushes the jet stream up, which will create a dip in the upper-level flow across Texas.
For the next 3 days, we’ll track for the chance for rain with a break, hopefully, by mid-week.
Tracking the tropics:
A 20% chance of cyclone formation looms. We’re monitoring a trough of low pressure near the southeastern coast, expected to move westward across Florida into the northeastern Gulf by Tuesday. This could bring heavy flooding to parts of Florida and the north-central Gulf Coast next week.

Your 10-Day Forecast:
Temperatures are expected to stay consistent across Houston, with highs sticking to the lower to mid-90s through the weekend and beyond.
It’s been a few year’s since we’ve had a summer weather pattern like the last few weeks of more than commonly stormy weather. Next week, we’ll finally start to string a few dry (albeit very hot) days together in a row. so you have a chance to get some of those outdoor projects done!
