...FLASH FLOOD WATCH NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING...
THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS NOW IN EFFECT FOR
* PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS AND SOUTHEAST TEXAS...INCLUDING
THE FOLLOWING JACKSON. ...AUSTIN...BRAZORIA...BURLESON...
CHAMBERS...COLORADO...FORT ...BEND...GALVESTON...GRIMES...

JACINTO...WALKER...WALLER...WASHINGTON AND WHARTON.
* THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING
* RAINFALL TOTALS ARE ADDING UP FROM THE PAST FEW DAYS OF RAIN
ACROSS SOME PARTS OF THE REGION. THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING, EXPECT
A WIDE RANGE OF TOTALS ACROSS THE AREA. HOWEVER...WITH DEEP
TROPICAL MOISTURE REMAINING IN PLACE...STRONGER SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS COULD PRODUCE LOCALIZED 3 TO 5 INCH AMOUNTS IN A
SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FALLING OVER GROUNDS
THAT MAY ALREADY BE SATURATED WILL QUICKLY RUNOFF AND LEAD TO
FLASH FLOODING.
* THESE HIGH RAINFALL RATES CAN LEAD TO STREET FLOODING...
ESPECIALLY WHEN FALLING ON ALREADY SATURATED GROUNDS. AREA
CREEKS...BAYOUS...AND RIVERS WILL ALSO NEED TO BE MONITORED
FOR RISES NEAR LOCATIONS THAT RECEIVE EXCESSIVE RAINFALL.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MEANS THAT CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP THAT LEAD
TO FLASH FLOODING. FLASH FLOODING IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.
BE ESPECIALLY CAUTIOUS AT NIGHT WHEN IT IS HARDER TO RECOGNIZE THE
DANGERS OF FLOODING.
YOU SHOULD MONITOR LATER FORECASTS AND BE PREPARED TO TAKE ACTION
SHOULD FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS BE ISSUED.
