MAY 2019: Wednesday Storm Complex/Scattered Showers To End May

[cperk]

Looks like I'm going to end up with about 14 inches.

[srainhoutx]

Flash Flood Warning coming for Harris County. Myerland area road are becoming impassable.

[unome]

watch the loop of radar estimated precip, at 1st glance it looks like the totals went down, but no... they had to change the "inches" that corresponded to the colors - "white" is currently 14" now

Watching carefully new storm development to the SW of DT Houston. Currently seeing some training which is worrisome regarding the Flood potential.

[Ptarmigan]

If it wasn't even really supposed to rain until Thurs-Sat, how screwed are we really when areas got a foot today?

My thoughts exactly.

I would not be surprised if some areas see 20 inches once it is all over.

[Andrew]

Redevelopment to the southwest is not encouraging, especially for a day that most models indicated little in precipitation.

[snowman65]

my daughter is driving from c.s. to Beaumont tomorrow....any concerns for tomorrow in her path?

[CAK]

Is this system heading south and east away from Kingwood?

[cperk]

There's going to be a problem here in Fort Bend if we get anywhere near the rain forecasted for the rest of the week.

Recommend checking morning news for closures of roads. Rain is modeled for 10% chance overnight. I suspect the preferable route will not include 99, nor 59. I would think 290 to North Loop around to 10, then on to Beaumont.

Just kinda depends on the next few hours and how fast it drains. Also consider leaving an hour earlier.

Guess this is happening too early to be called the 2019 Mother's Day Flood.

An alternate to 105 could be to take Hwy 30 to Huntsville, which turns into 190, then come down 287 at Woodville to Beaumont. Cleveland hasn't been getting pummeled like New Caney, but it hasn't been spared. Livingston hasn't had much, today.
