...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FROM LATE TONIGHT THROUGH
SUNDAY EVENING...

The National Weather Service in Houston/Galveston has issued a

* Flash Flood Watch for a portion of southeast Texas...including
the following counties...Brazos...Burleson...Grimes...
Houston...Madison...Trinity and Walker.

* From late tonight through Sunday evening

* A warm front becoming nearly stationary within a very unstable
environment may provide the focus for repeated daytime storm
activity. Very moist air flowing directly into this boundary
will enhance the threat for slow moving high rainfall producing
thunderstorm cells. This will increase the probability for flash
flooding across our far northern counties.

* Travel may become hazardous as flooding could occur over rural
roadways or low water crossings. Rapid response water sheds
could come out of banks within periods of heavy 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.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
