Houston is currently facing a tumultuous weather situation with severe thunderstorms shaking the city.

As the storms rage on, more than 250,000 CenterPoint customers are left without power, highlighting the impact of the inclement weather on the area.

The forecast for Houston remains grim as a Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect until 6 p.m. The storms are expected to bring hurricane-force winds and tennis ball-size hail, posing serious dangers to residents in the region. Despite the challenges, ABC13 has declared a Weather Alert Day, providing up-to-date information on the unfolding weather conditions through live cameras and radar coverage.

The situation worsened as hurricane-force winds struck Houston, causing widespread power outages and disrupting daily activities. With hundreds of thousands left in the dark and voting centers affected, the impact of the storms on essential services is evident. The resilient city of Houston faces another round of powerful storms, underscoring the importance of staying informed and prepared during severe weather events.

In a startling turn of events, the powerful storms in Houston generated wind gusts of up to 80 mph and left over 370,000 residents without power at the peak of the storm. The rapid escalation of the weather conditions emphasizes the unpredictable nature of thunderstorms in the region, urging residents to prioritize safety and caution during such tumultuous times.
