We’re in the severe weather season across Texas. There is a chance we’ll see a few showers and isolated storms in the Houston-area, but they will mostly stay along or south of the I-10 corridor with more rain chances north of the Houston-area around Friday afternoon.
Storm Chances Continue
A weak cold front will drop into the area bringing brief heavy rain, small hail and gusty winds, along with frequent lightning this morning. A few more storms may fire up near the front on Friday afternoon and evening. This weather pattern is typical for the region during this time of year, and residents should be prepared for sudden changes in weather conditions.
