...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH THURSDAY EVENING...

* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.

* WHERE...A portion of West Central Texas, including the following
counties, Concho, Crockett, Irion, Kimble, Mason, McCulloch,
Menard, San Saba, Schleicher, Sutton and Tom Green.

* WHEN...Through Thursday evening.

* IMPACTS...There is a potential for life threatening flooding within
the watch area. Considerable to locally catastrophic flash flooding
impacts are likely for portions of the Northern Edwards Plateau
including portions of Crockett and Sutton counties. Excessive
runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other
low-lying and flood-prone locations. Creeks and streams may rise
out of their banks. Flooding will occur in poor drainage and urban
areas. Low-water crossings will be flooded. Extensive street
flooding is likely and flooding of creeks and rivers is possible.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Multiple rounds of heavy rainfall are expected over portions of
West Central Texas today through early Thursday evening. A series
of upper-level disturbances will interact with an influx of
tropical moisture across the region through the next couple of
days. High precipitable water values will fuel highly efficient
rain- producing storms, with model guidance indicating near-
stationary clusters capable of producing 2 to 4 inches of rain
per hour. This could lead to storm totals of 4 to 8 inches over
the Watch area with isolated areas seeing 10+ inches. The highest
threat centers along the I-10 corridor, extending north into the
southern portions of the Concho Valley and Heartland.
