Really wondering if the strong winds from the south are going to slow down the line quite a bit, and with that, really increase flooding issues much more than were anticipated.

Torrential rain, hail and constant lightning here in Round Rock. If we have to have 60mph wind and hail, hoping it will take some cedar tree pollen with it!

Pfft. The line of storms to the south might last two minutes unless it slows down or it builds up before it comes in. Houston proper might get smacked though.

Definitely storming here in Wharton County much worse than I thought it would. A nice surprise. Should end up with close to 2” when all is said and done!

Tornado Watch has been cancelled for all of the Houston Area including Coastal Counties. I have seen reports of trees down on vehicles in Montgomery County, a high water rescue up near Bryan/College Station and our typical low spot flood areas on roadways across Metro Houston. The Pacific Front to a West should clear us out later this afternoon. A stronger modified Canadian Front arrives tomorrow setting the stage for over running light stratiform rain and chilly temperatures throughout the weekend.
