Flood Watch until 08:00PM Saturday

* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.

* WHERE...All of south central Texas, including the following counties, Atascosa, Bandera, Bastrop, Bexar, Blanco, Burnet, Caldwell, Comal, De Witt, Dimmit, Edwards, Fayette, Frio, Gillespie, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Hays, Karnes, Kendall, Kerr, Kinney, Lavaca, Lee, Llano, Maverick, Medina, Real, Travis, Uvalde, Val Verde, Williamson, Wilson and Zavala.

* WHEN...From Friday evening through early Saturday evening.

* IMPACTS...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. Extensive street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are possible.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - A slow moving storm system will bring several rounds of rain across south central Texas from early Friday evening through at least early Saturday evening. Some of the rainfall rates could be very intense, and much of the area has a chance to see 3 to 6 inch rainfall amounts by Saturday evening. Additional rainfall amounts could accumulate Saturday night into Sunday leading to isolated storm total rainfall amounts up to 10 inches. Thus there is a good chance that the Flash Flood Watch may need to be extended later into the weekend. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
