The Brazos River in Richmond is at Gage Elevation 9.46 feet. We are expecting a slight increase in the Brazos River through Fort Bend County due to upstream rainfall/releases. Based on the current forecast, no flooding due to the Brazos River through Fort Bend County is anticipated. We have increased rain chances tomorrow as our first Fall cool/cold front works its way through the region. The remainder of the week should include cooler, drier conditions. The 7-Day Quantitative Precipitation Forecast (QPF) is showing the lower Brazos River Watershed receiving less than ½ inch of rain over the next 7 days. The National Hurricane Center is watching several storms and disturbances in the Atlantic, but there are no current threats included in the forecast for southeast Texas.
See the attached Flood Risk Report.
