SUMMARY: Tonight marks a major event for Houston’s cowboys and cowgirls as the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo announces its entertainment lineup. The event, which has been a tradition for 93 years, originated in 1932 when local cattlemen sought a way to market their livestock. Dr. Chris Bulman, president of the rodeo, shared excitement about new attractions, including a virtual Chuck Wagon and fresh additions to the carnival. The public eagerly awaits the announcement, which will be streamed live on KPRC 2 Plus. The event continues to be a highlight for Houstonians every March.

SUMMARY: David Paul from the K1 Weather Center provided an update on current weather conditions in Houston and Southeast Texas, which are experiencing a rainy and cold night. While minor street ponding and reduced visibility are issues, major flooding is not a concern. Rain is expected to continue through the night until about 3 a.m., with clearing anticipated by sunrise. Inland areas remain above freezing, which means precipitation will fall as rain, unlike the Dallas area where sleet and snow are occurring. Travelers should be cautious due to wet roads, and conditions are expected to improve by Friday afternoon.

It’s a cold, rainy night around the Houston area. Chief Meteorologist David Paul is tracking how long it’ll last.
