HOUSTON, Texas Strong thunderstorms are bringing severe wind gusts to southeast Texas this morning.
As many as 150,000 customers across the Houston area were without power Wednesday morning, according to Centerpoint Energy.
The most likely threat from these storms are strong wind gusts over 60 mph, but we can't completely rule out hail nor a brief, isolated tornado. This does not look like the kind of setup that can produce large and long-tracked tornadoes like the one that hit Onalaska last week. Because these storms will be moving so quickly, street flooding is unlikely, and the worst of the storms should clear the coast before sunrise.

After the storms clear on Wednesday morning, we'll enjoy an abundance of sunshine and lower humidity Wednesday afternoon. We'll also enjoy a couple of cooler mornings in the 50s before the heat starts to build in.
High temperatures for this weekend and the beginning of next week look to be headed for the 90 degree mark or higher. Factor in the humidity, and it will feel close to 100-degrees.
We could encounter another stormy cool front late Tuesday or early Wednesday next week.
