Flood Watch has been expanded & extended through Friday afternoon across parts of North & Central Texas. Although showers & storms will be scattered today, isolated additional rainfall amounts as high as 2 to 4 inches are possible which could cause flooding.
Scattered to numerous showers and storms will redevelop across the area this morning and continue off and on through Saturday. Some heavy rain and localized flash flooding will continue to be possible, although not as widespread as what was seen on Thursday.
Rain will linger across the area on Sunday before ending, with sunny & dry weather next week. Look for warm days in the 80s and 90s with cool nights in the 50s and 60s.
With the potential for heavy rain and flooding over the next few days, it is important to remember that flash flooding can escalate quickly. Make sure to have multiple ways to receive warnings. Do not drive into flood waters, even if they appear shallow. Turn around, don't drown.
