Between Monday and Thursday, total rainfall amounts of 4-7 inches are projected by the National Weather Service. Isolated areas may see 10 or more inches of rain.
Key takeaway Isolated areas may see 10 or more inches of rain.
The power outage affecting over 2,000 customers in the Houston area is a concern for residents of The Woodlands, who are no strangers to the impact of severe weather on daily life. Given the community's location about 30 miles north of Houston, it's likely that some Woodlands residents may be among those affected by the outages. The Woodlands Township and local utility providers will be working to restore power as quickly as possible, but in the meantime, residents may want to check on vulnerable neighbors, such as the elderly or those with medical needs, who may be disproportionately affected by the loss of electricity. With the region's history of Gulf hurricane and flooding risks, The Woodlands' emergency management systems are likely to be on high alert, and residents should stay informed about the status of the outages and any other weather-related developments.
