Wednesday weather forecast

Get ready for a wild weather ride over the next 24 to 36 hours as a strong cold front will be moving through the area, bringing the threat for showers and storms...a few of which could be strong. The main threat will be heavy rain, but pinpointing exactly where the heaviest will fall is tough to determine. Right now, it appears the heaviest will fall north of I-10 and west of I-45. Prime time for rain will be later this evening, after sunset, and lasting until about noon on New Year's Eve. Once the rain exits, it will be chilly and windy as we ring in 2021. The good news is quiet weather will welcome us this weekend with a gradual warming trend as we head toward the first full week of the New Year.
