Tropical Storm Edouard has officially developed in the Gulf, and we continue to monitor its progress closely.
RFPD is prepared for this tropical weather should any of it reach us.
Landfall remains expected tomorrow afternoon near the Texas–Louisiana border. As Edouard moves inland toward the northwest, the current forecast track places the center just east of Montgomery County, though our area remains within the cone of uncertainty.
Rainfall:
Heavy rainfall is possible, with 3–5 inches expected across our area. While this system will bring much‑needed rain, flash flooding remains a concern.
Wind:
At this time, significant winds are not forecast for Montgomery County.
Flood Watch:
A Flood Watch is in effect from 1 AM Tuesday through 7 AM Wednesday.
Please monitor the morning forecast update, as any overnight adjustments will be reflected then. Tomorrow morning’s briefing will likely be the final update before landfall.
More information will be shared as soon as it becomes available.
