Just a few showers and storms remaining through the extended weekend

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- No more Flood Watch, and no repeat of Saturday's widespread storms through the rest of the Memorial Day Weekend. There's still a chance for a spotty downpour or two, but rain chances are down to 30% through Memorial Day.

Memorial Day Monday will start off with temperatures in the upper 60s under a partly cloudy sky. A few showers are possible along the coastline early on in the day before a few showers and storms develop farther north along the I-10 corroder. It's a 30% chance you see rain Monday. So not a washout but you'll want to keep an eye on the radar if you have outdoors plans Monday. Otherwise we'll see highs climb into the mid-upper 80s once again with some sunshine here and there. An Ozone Pollution Watch is in effect for Harris, Galveston and Brazoria counties Monday. Unhealthy levels of ozone are possible particularly in the afternoon.

How much rain fell then Saturday?

A healthy amount! On average most of Southeast Texas who saw each of the rounds of rain picked up 2 to 4 inches of rain with most of those accumulations falling within an hour or so many times over. That's what lead to the flood threat during the evening hours. Some areas though saw less, around half an inch to an inch, with then coastal communities picking up somewhere between 3 to 5 inches of rain once again. Some of the thunderstorms that pushed through Houston Saturday produced rainfall rates of 3 to 5 inches an hour!

When will this storm pattern come to an end?

We will have lower rain chances both Memorial Day and Tuesday, but another upper-level storm is expected to swing through with a high chance of rain on Wednesday. This one will also bring a risk of street flooding and severe weather, so we have already put out an ABC13 Weather Watch. After the middle of the week, we should turn hotter and drier for the final weekend of May.
