Summary: The day was mostly cloudy, wet, and a little cool. Light to moderately heavy with some heavy and maybe some really heavy showers and a few thunderstorms passed through the Houston, TX area, periodically, on and off, during the morning, afternoon, evening, and night. I saw mostly light to moderate rain with some moderately heavy rain and a few lightning strikes with a few rumbles of thunder, during the morning, afternoon, evening, and night. It still felt a little cool, but much warmer than it did yesterday. The wind speeds were mostly calm with a few occasional moderate to moderately strong gusts. There was a flood advisory issued from I think 3 pm to 6 pm, for some areas in and near Houston, TX. There weren't any other watches, warnings, advisories, or weather statements issued for the Houston, TX area, that I know of. I didn't see, or hear about any flooding, or any other damages from the showers and thunderstorms that passed through the Houston, TX area. They just brought some really wet and slick roads with some huge puddles on the sides of some roads. The low for Houston, TX was in the 50's and the highs were in the 60's and maybe some 70's.

Locations: Northwest and west Houston, TX, Cypress, TX, and Katy, TX.

Thoughts: Houston, TX finally got some decent rain. It is also starting to feel warm again. There is still a lot more rain forecast to pass through the Houston, TX area, through Tuesday.
