This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of Southeast Texas..
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight
Scattered to occasionally numerous showers and thunderstorms are
expected today, particularly near and along the coast. Very
localized heavy rainfall and 20 to 40 mph wind gusts will be a
possibility in the strongest cells. Several inches of rain could
fall in a short time period...quickly running off to produce
street and small stream flooding.
Tropical funnel clouds will also be possible across parts of the
region. Most are expected to be short-lived and not reach the
ground.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday
Periods of showers and thunderstorms should persist for the next
couple of days. With a similar weather pattern remaining in
place, we will continue to monitor the possibility for some
localized heavy rainfall.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation is not anticipated at this time.
