Stage 2 Flood Alert Officially Lifted as Saturday Storm Threat Passes
The Stage 2 flood alert that had been keeping the Houston region on high alert through the weekend has been ended as storm conditions responsible for Saturday’s heavy rainfall have moved through and largely exited the area. The widespread storm threat that prompted the elevated alert has subsided significantly, bringing relief to communities that had been on flood watch through the prior days.
Residents across the Houston metro and surrounding communities can now move through the remainder of their Memorial Day weekend with considerably reduced weather concerns. However, areas that received significant rainfall through Saturday should remain cautious around low-lying zones and waterways that may still be running elevated.
