Houston Mayor John Whitmire and other city leaders shared a safety update with the public on Tuesday afternoon as storms continued in the area.

Houston has faced heavy downpours over the last few days, with some street flooding across the city, sparking concerns ahead of Wednesday's FIFA World Cup game.

On Tuesday afternoon, city Mayor John Whitmire held a press conference to share details of how they're preparing for possible tropical downpours.

Some of the preparations included lowering Lake Houston, pre-staging some barricades at flood-prone locations, and law enforcement, as well as public works, were staged across the area.

"We're in touch with NRG officials, certainly the FIFA people. Fan fest. Fan fest has been so responsible, you know, any lighting within eight miles, people are avoiding the outdoors," Whitmire said.

The mayor added that city officials are also in touch with FIFA leaders.

"Certainly, we're in constant touch with first responders in terms of safety and all possibilities. But FIFA controls their games, we know they control the price, admittance, but we run the city," Whitmire said.
