Widespread light to moderate rain, occasional heavier showers and possibly
an isolated thunderstorm can be expected to continue through early Sunday
morning across most of the local region.
Locally heavy downpours of rain are possible at times with any heavier bands of showers and isolated thunderstorms, most of which will occur in relatively narrow bands that tend to set up in certain parts of the area from time to time. The tendency recently has been for such bands to occur immediately along and especially just to the immediate East of I-35.
Average additional rainfall of 1-2 inches can be expected at most locations in general overnight, with locally higher amounts of 2-3 inches (or possibly more) in any bands of heavier showers (such as the ones noted above).
Any additional rainfall on top of what has already occurred across much of the same areas will cause ongoing areas of low land flooding to continue overnight and into the pre-dawn/early morning hours, especially along and to the East of I-35. Low water crossings and other similar areas are most likely to flood in this type of situation, and these areas should be avoided.
Northeast wind of 20-25 mph with gusts of 30-40 mph will continue early tonight, and then gradually decrease into the 15-20 mph range with gusts of 20-30 mph toward or shortly after dawn.
We will continue monitoring the situation and issue updates as conditions warrant.
