..FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM CDT THIS EVENING
* WHAT...FLOODING CAUSED BY EXCESSIVE RAINFALL CONTINUES TO BE
POSSIBLE.
* WHERE...A PORTION OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING
AREAS, BOLIVAR PENINSULA, BRAZORIA ISLANDS, CHAMBERS, COASTAL
BRAZORIA, COASTAL GALVESTON, COASTAL HARRIS, GALVESTON ISLAND,
INLAND BRAZORIA, INLAND GALVESTON, INLAND HARRIS, NORTHERN LIBERTY
AND SOUTHERN LIBERTY.
* WHEN...UNTIL 7 PM CDT THIS EVENING.
* IMPACTS...EXCESSIVE RUNOFF MAY RESULT IN FLOODING OF RIVERS,
CREEKS, STREAMS, AND OTHER LOW-LYING AND FLOOD-PRONE LOCATIONS.
EXTENSIVE STREET FLOODING AND FLOODING OF CREEKS AND RIVERS ARE
POSSIBLE.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- COASTAL AREAS WILL HAVE THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING
THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. RAINFALL RATES OF 2-2.5 INCHES PER
HOUR ARE POSSIBLE IN THE HEAVIEST DOWNPOURS. ADDITIONAL
WIDESPREAD RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES IN THE WATCH ARE
EXPECTED WITH ISOLATED HIGHER TOTALS POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY
ALONG THE COAST. GROUNDS ARE FAIRLY SATURATED ACROSS PORTIONS
OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS, WHICH WOULD ALLOW FOR A QUICKER
TRANSITION OF THE RAINFALL TO RUNOFF. THIS INCREASES THE
POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING, ESPECIALLY IN THE AREAS THAT HAVE
RECEIVED 4+ INCHES OF RAIN OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS.
