Overview
- The FAA put a ground delay in place at George Bush Intercontinental Airport because thunderstorms are sweeping across the Houston area.
- A ground delay holds some departures at their origin airports until the destination can safely receive more flights.
- Forecasters expect multiple waves of rain through the day, with a stronger round possible late, raising the risk of severe weather.
- The National Weather Service issued a Flood Watch through early Saturday for Southeast Texas, including Harris County.
- Travelers may see uneven disruptions as traffic levels change with each storm band, so flight status updates will be crucial.
