SCW Sat PM update
SCW Sat PM update Stage 2 flooding conditions moving through Houston, but we're nearing the end of this event. Eric Berger · Saturday, May 23, 2026 4:36 PM In brief: *Strong showers and thunderstorms are moving through Houston on Saturday afternoon, creating some flash flooding.
*The good news is that this mess should exit the area over the next couple of hours. Until then be weather aware. Quick update to note that the "afternoon" round of storms we advertised in this morning's post is now moving through central Houston. 
*This band of showers and thunderstorms is producing heavy rainfall, and we're seeing some flash flooding consistent with the Stage 2 alert we have put into place for this weekend.
*The good news is that these storms are progressing fairly well to the east-northeast, and should gradually clear the entire metro area by around sunset if not before.
*Accordingly if you have dinner reservations or other plans later this evening you should feel free to go out.
*Once these storms end we anticipate a quiet evening and overnight period. *As for Sunday, we expect scattered showers and thunderstorms (probably better chances closer to the coast) but nothing as organized as what we experienced today.
*Memorial Day probably will have less coverage still, with more sunshine.
*We will break this all down for you in an update on Sunday morning.

StormChaser : so much rain today and so much lightning and thundering. That lightning has been terrible. I'll be glad when it's over for good.
CatalinaD : He went, reluctantly. He is funny, I have a towel down, he comes in and stands on it and wants to be rubbed down! He is spoiled rotten
