  • ...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL LEADING TO FLASH FLOODING POSSIBLE
    TODAY AND SUNDAY...
    .Bands of showers and thunderstorms will produce periods of
    tropical downpours through this weekend. When and where these
    bands will develop is difficult to pinpoint, but the threat for
    heavy rainfall from them will persist as long as an associated
    area of low pressure lingers in southern Texas. Much of the watch
    area is near-saturated from recent rainfall, and any additional
    heavy rainfall could quickly lead to flash flooding.
    ...FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS EVENING...
    The Flash Flood Watch continues for
    * A portion of south central Texas, including the following
    areas, Blanco, Caldwell, Comal, De Witt, Gonzales, Guadalupe,
    Hays, Karnes, Lavaca, and Wilson.
    * Through this evening
    * Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms will impact
    the region. Widespread 1 to 3 inches of rainfall are expected
    through Saturday evening, with isolated pockets near 7 inches
    possible. Due to sensitivity of nearly-saturated grounds over
    the area, any additional heavy rains will result in quick run-
    off and an increased risk for flash flooding.
    * Flooding of low water crossings and urban areas is possible.
