* WHEN...Through this evening.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Increasing moisture, along with the continued presence of a
weak frontal boundary across the area and the approach of an
upper-level disturbance, will result in widespread rainfall
developing across portions of SE Texas beginning tomorrow
morning. The flooding risk is twofold- high rainfall rates
along and south of the I-10 corridor may lead to flash
flooding and rises along area rivers, creeks, and streams.
While rainfall coverage across the northern zones will be
more sparse, antecedent rainfall over the last 48 hours has
resulted in increased ground saturation in these areas. As a
result, any developing storms will have a greater potential
to produce flooding despite their more isolated coverage.
