KHOU 11 News covers the Houston area after another round of severe weather hit the region.

No serious injuries were reported when a strong line of storms moved through Southeast Texas on Tuesday, according to Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo.HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — Less than two weeks after the Houston area was slammed by an out-of-the-ordinary weather event, a somewhat"typical" Southeast Texas weather system hit the Houston area.. Wind gusts of up to 75 mph were recorded at George Bush Intercontinental Airport and quarter to golf ball-sized hail was also spotted.

Conditions were expected to remain conducive for severe thunderstorms through the next few days, she said, although it's hard to predict if something severe will happen. Hidalgo said CenterPoint was still assessing the outages, but it was nowhere near what the region dealt with a couple of weeks ago.
