Flood Watch In Effect
Additional Heavy Rain & Storms Thursday
Unsettled Pattern Ahead of Thanksgiving
A Flood Watch is in effect for western portions of Central Texas from 12 am Thursday through 6 am Friday. Multiple rounds of heavy rainfall will result in an increasing threat for flash flooding across the watch area through Thursday night. Rainfall totals will be between 1 to 2 inches on average, with isolated totals up to 4 inches. There is still high uncertainty in where the highest rainfall totals will occur. The watch may be expanded depending on how the initial rounds of storms develop tonight.

Showers and storms will be ongoing Thursday morning. We could see a break around mid to late morning before the next round of rain and storms arrives in the afternoon. The main weather concern will be the potential for isolated flooding given bursts of heavy rainfall, especially those locations that receive heavy rain Wed night into Thu morning. There is also a low tornado threat across Central Texas in the afternoon and evening.
