Showers and storms as we watch Ida

Tropical Storm Ida (soon to be a hurricane) is expected to pass well to our east into Louisiana on Sunday evening. With that path, we should expect minimal effects on our area other than high waves, rip currents and higher tides for coastal areas. Watch for showery weather south of Houston through midday today with isolated afternoon storms. More storms are likely for Saturday with hotter weather likely beginning Sunday as Ida passes to our east.
