Isolated showers are possible Monday night across Southeast Texas, according to FOX 26 Houston. The station said the cold front is also bringing a threat of severe storms and heavy rain to the northwest overnight, in places such as Dallas, Waco and Austin.
Showers and thunderstorms are expected Tuesday, Election Day, as the cold front moves through the Houston area.
