Joe. Thanks for joining us tonight. First responders have had another busy day, checking vehicles submerged underwater and getting people out of flooded homes. But first let's go right to meteorologist Pat Clan who is tracking the latest thing. Anyone needs a stormy Sunday, Pat. Yeah, this is not good news for us. We do have a level three out of four. That's a moderate risk for flash flood and it's pretty high to see that across the area. And this is now, I believe the third day this week that we have that moderate risk in effect. The one thing that's different from tomorrow's set up than the last few rounds that we've seen over the past week is that the city of Houston is now included in this moderate risk. This level three out of four for the potential to see flash flooding. So that does bring into play some of those bayous that go through the city. We're talking about White Oak bayou. We're talking about uh, greens bayou. We're talking about uh Buffalo Bay as well. So areas to the west like attic barker along the energy corridor. Getting into the city here, the Galleria Memorial park into rice, military the heights and then areas to the north as well up towards Aldean acres home and then out towards the East Jacinto City, East Houston Beaumont place, all of these spots could potentially see some flooding even down towards Rays Oaks along Rays Bayou. We could see some flooding as we get to the on Sunday. So a flood watch in effect for all the areas in green that does include Harris County. Rainfall rates could be 1 to 3 inches per hour. On average, we're expecting 2 to 4 inches of rain to fall across the area. But in some of the more persistent downpours and storms, we could see 8 to 12 inches by the time it's all said and done. There's a system right now across central and west Texas here at home. A couple of uh, lightning flashes across Liberty County, but these are moving fast. This is not the main event. However, we are watching a boundary setting up here to the north and east of the city. A couple downpours and storms forming along that we'll have to keep an eye to see where exactly these storms develop as we go through the overnight hours. But it's tomorrow morning, Marcelina that we'll be watching a step by step, hour by hour, walk through future track when I see you back here for the full forecast in 15 minutes. Pat. Thank you. We'll see you in a bit. The floodwaters have been relentless. Even in this break from the rain, first responders have been staying busy going into neighborhoods on air boats and making rescues. Channel view is right next to several bodies of water. A river and bayou that area is now a major flood zone and where Steven Goen is joining us tonight, Stephen Marcelino. These are the conditions we're seeing out here tonight right here behind me. This is a feeder road that leads on to I 10. It may be hard to tell in the dark but it's just completely covered in water, cutting off access to these communities near the river. People here have been stranded all day. Rescue crews have been going in trying to get people out of their flooded homes. Take a look. This is video showing those Harris County Sheriff's office teams in boats trying to to these flooded areas. You can see there are homes with water coming up to the doorway, people and pets stranded inside. We're told 22 adults and six Children and some animals were rescued from these neighborhoods. Now, we also saw quite a few people who chose to stay in these flooded areas today. Some even going into the water despite all the dangers there, many of these communities along the San Vicente River near I 10 still under mandatory evacuations tonight. If you have an opportunity to evacuate in a flooded area, take take the chance to evacuate while you can because we don't know what's going to happen tomorrow. Now, the sheriff's office tells us they expect to be back out here tomorrow conducting even more rescues, especially if these flood waters rise, which they very well could Marcelino Stephen Goen with that live report? Thanks so much. Now, let's bring in Ale Ruiz who continues our team coverage from the Kingwood area tonight. Ali, what have you been seeing out there? Well, Marcelino, many of the roads out here are still blocked off by officers. They're trying to ask people not to drive through them as you can see behind me. You don't really know what's in that water. Lake Houston Parkway turning cars around this afternoon after water is coming in from Lake Houston into their neighborhoods. Well, we're just trying to get back to our family and have some dinner with them. Eric tells us he's trying to get to his mom's house but he was told he couldn't drive through the high water. So instead we're going to try to go through the golf course where there's a couple of hills and see if we can get through there. But I got my boots on just in case I need to wait through some water and there are many living here trapped in their neighborhood. He's barricaded the whole thing over there so we can't drive anymore. Oh, ok. He, our streets are flooded. Legend and his brother and their mom decided to walk around and just look at some of the damages and while adults might be scared of their homes and the damages for those littles. So at the same time, it's scary because I feel like it, it can just rise. They have other fears when they see the water rise. I was scared and I thought the dinosaurs were gonna come back. But tonight, the threat remains more rain in the forecast. You know, fingers crossed and wishing for the best for the whole community. And we just want to remind people to be careful when you're driving out here. Don't always trust your GPS. Sometimes. Like I said, a lot of roads have been blocked off out here trying to prevent people from driving through just in case the road like you see behind me or other roads. You know, sometimes officers say the roads could wash away again, turn around and don't drown reporting live. Ale, Luis Khou 11. Good advice there. Ale. Thanks so much tonight, Houston police are sharing video of another water rescue officer H Scott with HP DS marine unit rescued a man and three dogs. It was caught on his body worn camera. HPD said it happened around noon in a trailer park close to where the San Jacinto river enters Lake Houston. Officer Scott managed to get the man and the dogs onto his jet ski. HPD says everyone is ok. Tonight. The Houston Office of Emergency Management wants people to remember that Lake Houston is still closed to everyone. That's boats, kayaks, canoes and definitely swimming conditions are still too dangerous. The water is swift and all kinds of debris may have been washed into the lake tonight. A Kingwood area HEB is closed due to flooding. It's the location at 4517 Kingwood Drive. HPD says it was closed out of an abundance of caution for their customers and partners. Right now, we're told they plan to reopen around mid-morning tomorrow though HEB has not set an exact time yet. Heb says the market at North Park Drive is still open for the Kingwood area and surrounding communities.
