Tropical Storm Nicholas has made landfall on Texas coast
Showers and thunderstorms were already drenching parts of Texas as Nicholas made landfall, threatening a significant flood risk for Texas and Louisiana.
Nicholas lost wind intensity and became a tropical storm again
On Tuesday morning, several hours after strengthening into a hurricane, Nicholas lost wind intensity and was reclassified as a tropical storm, with sustained winds of 70 mph. The hurricane warning from Matagorda to Freeport, Texas, was changed to a tropical storm warning, and the storm warning from Matagorda to Port O’Connor, Texas, was discontinued.
AccuWeather forecasters will continue to monitor Tropical Storm Nicholas as it takes a path through southeastern Texas and into Louisiana throughout the rest of the week.
“Heavy rain will persist across southeast Texas, and will continue spreading into Louisiana today,” said AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Adam Douty. While the heaviest rain and most significant flooding is expected to less in Texas on Wednesday, it can continue through midweek across southern and central Louisiana.
Harry Styles concert at Toyota Center postponed due to Hurricane Nicholas
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK)
As Hurricane Nicholas gathered strength, pop singer Harry Styles has postponed his show at the Toyota Center Monday night.
According to a tweet posted by the singer, his team has advised him that the show “can’t happen” due to weather.
“Safety must take priority, so please go home and be safe,” he wrote.
According to the Toyota Center’s website, the show was slated to kick off at 8 p.m.
As Nicholas moves closer to the Texas coastline, officials across the Houston area have already told residents to plan to head somewhere safe indoors by 7 p.m. on Monday.
Authorities said the possibility of flash flooding is their main concern.
Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo issued a warning minutes before the singer canceled the show saying, “We cannot, in good conscience, advise folks to drive to and from the Harry Styles concert [Monday night.] It is simply going to be too dangerous of a situation on our roads. We don’t want to lose people on our roads.”
The former One Direction singer performed in San Antonio Sunday night.
A rescheduled date was not immediately released, but ticketholders are encouraged to monitor the Toyota Center’s website for any updates.
