Wednesday's stormy forecast
 
Long story short: its going to be a stormy Wednesday. Things should stay below severe limits but gusty winds & some isolated street flooding could be an issue during the heavier cells.
 

******************

 
From Space City Weather:
 
Storms return to the Houston area today, as May continues to close on a noisy note.
 
Matt Lanza · Wednesday, May 28, 2025 6:53 AM
 
In brief:
*Scattered to numerous storms will impact the Houston area once more today.
*Severe risks, while low, are not zero.
*We'll remain unsettled heading into the late week and weekend but hopefully at a less intense pace than we've started the week with.
*Hotter weather lurks on the horizon.
 
TODAY (WEDNESDAY)
 
*After things calmed down yesterday, they stayed calm, thankfully, but we will not have that luxury today.
*Storms (non-severe) are already moving across Matagorda County and Wharton County this morning.

*There are also a couple isolated storms just west of Downtown.
*Over the next few hours, the activity near Matagorda Bay will slide across Brazoria and Galveston Counties.
*Some of those storms could be strong to severe with gusty winds.
*Lightning and heavy rain are a given with these storms as well.
*Elsewhere, scattered storms will pop across the rest of the area today.
*While we don't expect significant severe weather, we cannot rule out isolated severe storms.
*A severe thunderstorm watch or flood watch could be issued for our area.
**Gusty winds are the main concern today.
 
Current radar @ 720AM

*It is possible that we see an additional cluster of storms develop with daytime heating out near College Station and the Brazos Valley.
*Those could swing through in the evening hours.
*Again -- the primary concern would be isolated gusty wind as that happens.
*Also, keep an eye out for heavy rainfall.
*These storms are putting down close to 2 inch per hour rainfall rates so this could cause some street flooding to crop up in spots.
*Nothing too, too serious as far as flooding goes but just be mindful in typically flood-prone spots.
*Temperatures will be held back in the 80s today.
 
Stay tuned.....

Well, can't complain too much when we get a normal storm day instead of the spin the chaos storm wheel and win property damage kind of day.

Stay safe everyone! I had pics of the Memorial Day flood come up on my FB feed. Right now I'm trying to remember what rain is like! Some days I miss the rain something fierce. But mostly I am grateful for all the sunshine. Monsoon Season-starts June 1. They say it will be an active one. We shall see.

StormChaser : Glad that Kingwood is not included. I didn't have power for 10 hours yesterday. It just really makes for a long day when that happens and you feel so isolated.

cbear : Aww I'm sorry.
 
I know this gets brought up a lot here but have you thought about getting a generator?
 
You don't even need a whole home one since you live alone. I know ZMAN just did a set up that's not a $12,000 Generac like most.
 
Actually a few people here have gone that route. Maybe Buffaloglenn too? 🤔
 
Its definitely something to look in to.
 
After 12 days in the dark after Beryl, cooped up with my husband, a grumpy teenager 🙄 and my almost 90 year old mother in law, I about lost my damn sanity! 😬
 
I'm sure you've probably looked into it but its soooo with it.
