Hydrologic Outlook

Issued at
Summary

ESFSHVAn upper level disturbance will begin moving our way late tonightresulting in periods of showers with embedded thunderstorms acrossthe region after midnight. This rainfall will only become morewidespread as we go through the day Saturday and especiallySaturday Night. Look for widespread rainfall amounts of near oneto three inches with isolated higher amounts possible. Therainfall should quickly exit the Four State Region from west toeast during the day Sunday.While rainfall rates will likely not be excessive enough toresult in widespread flash flooding, poor drainage and flood proneareas will be susceptible to flooding. The greater impacts willlikely come from already swollen bayous, lakes and rivers whichremain high from previous rainfall. This forecast rainfall willlikely result in either a slow down to recent falling trends oradditional rises on most all area waterways that will continueinto next week.
