Some gave all in service to something greater than themselves.

On this #MemorialDay, we honor their courage, sacrifice and enduring legacy.

Texas will have to spend billions “to prevent a total evacuation of the city” if water supplies are depleted in Corpus Christi this fall

[Ed Gonzalez @SheriffEd_HCSO]

Please join us in sending condolences to the family of Deputy Ricky Zaragosa, 33. We’re grateful for his three years of service in the Harris County Sheriff’s Office. May he Rest in Peace.

[Ed Gonzalez @SheriffEd_HCSO]

A big, heartfelt thank you to every single person who’s helped us get to this point. Your support, hard work, and trust mean everything as we protect this growing county.

Also, a special shoutout to the project managers and team at the Harris County Office of Engineering—y’all’s expertise and partnership have been key in turning our vision into reality. We couldn’t do it without you.

Together, we’re building a safer Harris County—one step, one project at a time.

Clear, actionable weather intel that helps make informed decisions. protect pipes, secure outdoor assets, and keep non-essential travel off the roads after midnight when conditions deteriorate

Be careful with alternative heat sources, be compassionate and check on neighbors

[Matt Lanza @mattlanza]

The next few hours will be quiet and should be mostly fine around the Houston area. Roads are wet. Fog may be locally dense. It is cold. If you can stay home, do so, but if you have any last minute things to tie up, you can through 9-10 PM I imagine. Pipes, plants, pets, ppl.

[Ed Gonzalez @SheriffEd_HCSO]

Severe weather hasn’t even arrived yet, and we’re already seeing serious crashes on our roadways. Please slow down, give yourself extra time, and drive with caution. A few minutes saved isn’t worth a life.

[NWS Houston @NWSHouston]

A Freeze Watch is in effect for portions of SE Texas. Areas north of the watch area will reach freezing temperatures, but have already experienced a freeze this season; therefore, they are not included in the Watch. Lows are predicted to drop into the 27-32F range Sun PM - Mon AM

[NWS Houston @NWSHouston]

7-Day Temperature and Rainfall Outlook.

Worth mentioning that forecast uncertainty is a little higher than normal for this weekend into early next week.

[Samuel Peña @ChiefSamPena]

⚠️Hazardous road conditions. Rain all day Houston.

Slow Down and allow added breaking distance

[NWS Houston @NWSHouston]

Look for rain to expand across the area today. Highest totals should be situated across southern parts of the region. Ground is wet from Saturday nights rain, so any heavier downpours will be prone to runoff into the roads. Be careful on the feeders, construction zones, etc

251am...Front and associated showers and storms making their way through the Houston metro area. Look for a quick 1-2" of rain as it tracks south. Poor drainage areas/roads could see some ponding of water...though widespread flash flood issues are not currently anticipated.
