Flood Watch issued June 12 at 5:47AM CDT until June 12 at 7:00PM CDT by NWS Houston/Galveston TX
* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.
* WHERE...Portions of south central and southeast Texas, including
the following areas, in south central Texas, Coastal Jackson and
Inland Jackson. In southeast Texas, Austin, Brazoria Islands,
Brazos, Burleson, Coastal Brazoria, Coastal Galveston, Coastal
Harris, Coastal Matagorda, Colorado, Fort Bend, Galveston Island,

* WHEN...Through this 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. Flooding may occur
in poor drainage and urban areas.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- The next round of showers and thunderstorms is expected to
pass through the region late tonight and Thursday morning.
Though the band of storms should be moving at an average
rate, upper level conditions are favorable for some training
and regenerating storms. Several inches of rain in a short
time period appear to be possible where this occurs. Model
trends have shown the axis of heavier rainfall shifting south
with each subsequent run with the latest suite showing deeper
moisture advection and low level convergence setting up near
the houston metro and southwestern counties. Watch area has
been expanded by a generous amount to cover the evolving
flood threat and uncertainty still present in short range
forecast models.

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood
Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared
to take action should flooding develop.
