Departures from George Bush Intercontinental Airport were delayed an average of 75 minutes, while departures from William P. Hobby Airport were delayed an average of 60 minutes due to storms.
The main line of storms was expected to reach the College Station area between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m., and the Houston metro area between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m.
Residents were urged to reschedule late-night plans, secure outdoor holiday décor, keep phones charged, and avoid driving during the strongest storms.
Thanksgiving is expected to be sunny and cool, with a high near 68°F (20°C).
The severe weather threat on Monday stemmed from a powerful line of storms pushing into Southeast Texas. The Storm Prediction Center placed much of the region under a Level 2 severe weather risk. While the line was expected to weaken as it moved toward the coast, residents were advised to remain alert. The storms cleared early Tuesday morning, paving the way for cooler and drier air for the remainder of the week. Thanksgiving Day will bring clear and cool conditions, with light winds and highs in the upper 60s. However, increased rain chances are expected by the coming weekend.
Q: What areas were most at risk during the tornado watch?
Northern cities and counties, including Huntsville, Livingston, and Brenham, were expected to see storms first, with coastal locations seeing the storms last.
Q: What is the weather forecast for Thanksgiving?
Thanksgiving is expected to be sunny and cool with a high near 68°F (20°C).
Stay informed about weather alerts in your area, especially during the holiday travel period. Secure outdoor decorations and have a plan in case of severe weather. Fortunately, Thanksgiving Day promises to be a pleasant one in Houston.
