Flood Watch issued March 25 at 1:41PM CDT until March 28 at 12:00PM CDT by NWS Corpus Christi TX
* WHAT...Numerous flash floods likely with significant events
possible.
* WHERE...For all of South Texas
* WHEN...From Wednesday afternoon through Friday morning.
* 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. Flooding may occur
in poor drainage and urban areas. Low-water crossings may be
flooded.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Abundant gulf moisture combined with a slow moving storm
system will bring the potential for multiple rounds of
showers and thunderstorms, some with very heavy rainfall. The
rain will begin Wednesday afternoon and continue through
Friday morning before ending. Given the hard dry soil from
the lack of rainfall over the past several months, there is a
potential for this heavy rain to quickly run off producing
flash flooding.
