Strong storms move through southeast Texas

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Strong storms moved through the Houston area Sunday afternoon, causing problems in several areas, including at NRG Stadium where fans were leaving after a Texans win.

We received plenty of photos and videos from fans around the stadium, showing people waiting the storm out inside NRG after the game was over. Earlier, we got reports of rain coming in through a hole in the stadium roof during the second half of the game.

An official from SMG-NRG Park released the following statement about the leak at the stadium:

"In the second half of today's Texans game, NRG Park experienced very heavy rain. Forecasts anticipated up to 3 inches of rain during a short amount of time. During this severe rain, roof leaks occurred over the stadium seating area. We apologize for any inconvenience to the fans. The leaks will be addressed and repaired as soon as possible."

Outside the stadium, heavy rain left the lots with plenty of standing water and a mess trying to get through it.

The storms caused problems in other spots, too. At Bush Airport, delays because of weather were reported. There were gate holds and taxi delays between 45 minutes and one hour. Arriving flights were delayed up to 15 minutes.

At the height of the storm, there were more than 12,000 people without power.
