FOX 26 Houston Weather Forecast: Flood watch in effect Wednesday

Flood Watch has been issued from 6am until 9pm Wednesday for the entire area with more rounds of heavy rain likely. Even this evening the threat for flooding will remain elevated, especially just north of Houston where some flood alerts have been issued. But models are showing a big batch of rain moving from the coast inland Wednesday morning into the afternoon. This could mean more flooded streets and problems for the AM rush. Rain chances stay very high through Thursday with scattered downpours impacting your weekend plans. Rain chances get a bit lower next week but some rain is still possible. Enjoy the cooler temperatures but watch out for flooded roads!
