Heavy rain, cold front rolling in this Friday evening
Strong cold front is moving through the Houston area bringing some heavy downpours at times and a few storms. There's still a low risk of a strong storm through the early evening. The main risk would be a brief wind gust of 50-60 mph and hail up to 1" along with brief heavy rain that could lead to a few flooded streets. Rain will continue through tonight tapering off very early Saturday. Much colder air rolls in just in time for the weekend with highs only near 60 and lows in the 30s and 40s. That means temperatures 10-20 degrees below average! So throw on a few extra layers, crank up the heater and get ready for a chilly weekend. Cool air hangs around all of next week too with another round of rain likely Monday.
