Houston, TX – Heavy rain and storms are expected to continue across southeast Texas today, increasing the risk of localized flooding. A slow-moving cold front will bring widespread showers, with some areas receiving up to four inches of rain by Monday morning. Major roadways, including I-45 and US-59, may experience water pooling, leading to hazardous driving conditions.

According to the National Weather Service (NWS), the heaviest rainfall is expected this afternoon through tonight, with a high chance of thunderstorms. Drivers are urged to stay weather-aware and avoid flooded roads. Patchy fog may also develop overnight into Monday morning, reducing visibility during commutes.

Rain chances will diminish by early Monday, though clouds will linger. The rest of the week will bring varied conditions, with Tuesday offering a brief break from rain before showers return midweek. Highs will range from the low 60s to 70s, with lows dropping into the 50s most nights.

Prepare for slick roads and allow extra time for travel. Stay updated by checking local forecasts frequently.
