We would like to hear of any significant weather phenomena that you observe, though we are particularly interested in receiving timely reports of tornadoes, one inch (quarter-sized) and larger hail, wind gusts of 58 mph or more, and flash flooding.

The 博体育 in Houston/Galveston serves the counties depicted in the map at the bottom of this page.

For life-threatening and imminent severe weather threats, please contact local law enforcement immediately (even if you also contact us by social media or email) and ask that they relay your report to the 博体育.

You can report significant weather on social media:

Twitter (preferred for reports) -
Facebook -

When posting weather reports to social media, it is helpful to include the hashtag #TXWX.

When timeliness is not an issue, you may send weather reports and photos to our webmaster at SR-HGX.webmaster@noaa.gov. From time to time, we receive weather photos that would enhance our severe weather training, outreach, and other education efforts. If we may use the photos that you send us for non-profit purposes, please let us know. We strive to include photo credits whenever possible.
