    Southeastern Wise County in north central Texas...
    Southwestern Denton County in north central Texas...

    * At 604 PM CDT, Doppler radar indicated periods of light to
    moderate rainfall which will cause urban and small stream
    flooding. Areas that are low lying or usually experience poor
    drainage are most likely to experience flooding across from north
    Fort Worth and Aledo, north toward Boyd, Springtown, and Justin.
    Soils are supersaturated with automated rain gauges in the area
    have already reported amounts to, or in excess of a half inch of
    rain. This means excessive water runoff may cause some low water
    crossings in the region to become impassable.
    * Some locations that will experience flooding include...
    Fort Worth, Bedford, Haltom City, Keller, Hurst, Southlake,
    Watauga, Colleyville, Saginaw, White Settlement, Azle, River Oaks,
    Sansom Park, Lake Worth, Eagle Mountain, Briar, North Richland
    Hills, Roanoke, Pecan Acres and Justin.
    Additional rainfall of a quarter to third of an inch is expected
    over the area. This additional rain will runoff and likely cause
    minor flooding of low lying areas on roads, as well as smaller
    creeks across the advisory area.
