Widespread light to moderate rain, periodic bands of heavier showers and
possibly an isolated thunderstorm will continue across the local area into the
evening hours.
Locally heavy downpours of rain are possible at times especially in areas that experience any banding of heavier showers. On average, additional rainfall of around 1.0 inch can be expected this evening. Any locations that experience banding of heavier showers for a prolonged period may receive up to 2-3 inches of additional rain in those spots/bands.
Look for flooding of especially low lying and/or poor drainage areas to continue and/or increase across portions of the area this evening. This is most likely to occur in areas that tend to see any repeat banding of heavier showers over time. Such a location right now includes eastern Hays County and southeast Travis County, generally along and East of I-35 including the San Marcos, Kyle and Buda areas, as well as areas to the East of that line. Other areas may be identified during the evening hours depending on where, if any, additional heavy rain bands set up.
We will closely monitor rain trends this evening, especially looking for any signs of banding of heavier rain that may become established in a given part of the area. If such conditions are observed, a Flood Warning or similar product may be required for such portions of the area at times. Such a product is currently in effect for eastern Hays and southeastern Travis county until 11pm.
East to Northeast winds will continue to average near 25 mph on a sustained basis this evening, with gusts of 30-40 mph common.
We will continue monitoring the situation and issue updates as conditions warrant.
