Houston Weather Outlook: Rain Threat Dims After Tuesday as Coastal Tropical Storm Looms

Following heavy Tuesday showers that caused localized street flooding, Houston’s rain threat is expected to ease, even as a tropical storm may form off the Texas coast Wednesday and bring 1–3 ft surge and gusty winds to coastal areas; most of the city should see 0–1 inch of rain with isolated bullseyes up to 3 inches near the coast, and Thursday–Friday look mostly sunny with highs in the low 90s, while Saturday’s forecast remains uncertain and Sunday looks dry.
