Do not drive your vehicle through flooded roadways. Remember: Turn Around Don’t Drown! Check the Houston TranStar live traffic map for information on road conditions.
Short periods of intense rainfall can cause temporary rises along our network of streams and bayous. You can see up-to-the-minute information on waterway conditions using the Harris County Flood Control District Flood Warning System.
HCOHSEM will provide updates via social media, Ready Harris Alerts and Ready Harris Accessible Alerts.
