Yes,
a new
storm system arriving Sunday and Monday is expected to bring widespread
rain, thunderstorms, and potential localized flooding to Texas,
following an initial round of heavy rain and flash flooding earlier
this week. A quiet Saturday is expected between the two systems. Weekend Flood Threat
- Sunday (Nov. 23): The flood threat on Sunday is mainly for North Texas, Northwest Texas, the Big Country, Northern Hill Country, and the Concho Valley. Some strong storms with damaging winds and brief tornadoes are also possible.
- Monday (Nov. 24): The flood threat shifts to Northeast Texas, East Texas, and the ArkLaTex region.
- Rainfall Totals: Most northern regions are forecast to receive 1 to 3 inches of rain from this system, with locally higher amounts possible.
- Travel Impacts: This weather is expected during one of the busiest travel weeks of the year, and travelers should be prepared for possible delays Sunday and Monday, especially in areas like Houston, San Antonio, and Central Texas.
Current Conditions
- Flash flood watches were in effect earlier in the week for millions of Texans, with parts of the Hill Country experiencing a flash flood emergency due to "training" storms (storms repeatedly moving over the same area).
- Dallas-Fort Worth Airport (DFW) set a record for its wettest November day on Thursday.
- Conditions for most of Texas should be drier and quieter on Friday afternoon and Saturday before the next storm system arrives.
