Tropical Storm Edouard update:

Myself and additional staff have been waiting for this Tropical Storm like it’s a guest who said they’d arrive at 5… and it’s now 10:30. I’m gonna get some rest at home until Edouard finally decides to show up.

Our on‑call officers are ready to respond if necessary. As of now, we’ll continue normal operations until the weather decides to make up it’s mind. If it does get dramatic, we’ll shift into emergency operations faster than Edouard can spin.

Quiroga, go back to work. Photo shoot is over…

Tropical Storm Edouard – Local Update

Tropical Storm Edouard is expected to make landfall soon near the Texas–Louisiana border. Rain bands associated with the storm are anticipated to reach our area within the next couple of hours. While Roman Forest is just outside the Tropical Storm Warning, we remain under a Flood Warning for flash flooding. The current forecast track brings the center of Edouard toward us within the cone of uncertainty.

Preparedness Measures

The Roman Forest Police Department and City crews are fully prepared for the incoming tropical weather. Additional personnel have been scheduled as a precaution, and recent improvements to roadside ditches will help manage runoff. An additional outfall ditch on Roman Forest Blvd near Galaxy Blvd is also now in service.

County Emergency Operations

Montgomery County Emergency Management will activate the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) at Level 2 beginning at 1:00 p.m. today. The EOC will remain activated until threats associated with Tropical Storm Edouard have passed.

Information from Montgomery County Emergency Management:

The low pressure system we have been monitoring for the past few days is now identified as potential tropical cyclone five. Should PTC5 strengthen it will become Tropical Storm Edouard.

At this time we are not expecting any significant impacts from this system.

However we will see our rain chances increase starting late tonight into Wednesday.

A flood watch has been issued for Montgomery County until September 2 at 7:00 A.M.

A few tips to keep in mind:

With limited rainfall these past few weeks the roads will be very slick initially when rainfall commences. Please allow extra spacing and slow down!

The ground is not primed for absorbing the initial rain as it is very hard and excessive rainfall could produce localized flash flooding. Turn around don't drown!

Keep an umbrella handy through Wednesday!

Today, Chief Stephen Carlisle and officers of the Roman Forest Police stood shoulder to shoulder with the sea of blue from the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office and agencies across our region, honoring the life and service of Deputy Erika Serrato, who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty on June 28, 2026.

Deputy Serrato was one of our own here in East Montgomery County. A Porter High School graduate, she began her public safety journey as a firefighter with East Montgomery County Fire before proudly serving the citizens of Montgomery County as a Deputy Sheriff. In every role, Erika embodied courage, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to helping others. Her dedication to public service reflected the very best of our profession.

Our thoughts and prayers remain with Deputy Serrato’s family, her friends, the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, and all who were touched by her kindness and strength. Her bravery, her heart for service, and her sacrifice will forever be remembered. Her legacy will continue to inspire us.

Rest Easy Deputy Erika Serrato, we’ll take it from here.
