Dangerous Texas Flooding Tonight | Texas Weather Roundup

Texas flooding tonight could become life-threatening as another round of very heavy rain develops across parts of the Edwards Plateau and Hill Country overnight into Thursday morning.

The greatest concern includes areas near Del Rio, Brackettville, Eagle Pass, Uvalde, Kerr County and Junction, generally west of Highway 281. High-resolution model guidance shows a narrow corridor of extreme rainfall. Most locations will not receive the highest totals, but a localized 5–10 county area could receive a foot or more. Exact placement may shift east or west, so do not focus on one model bull’s-eye.

In this Wednesday evening Texas Weather Roundup:

• Three-day rainfall totals from DFW and Waco to the Brazos Valley, Golden Triangle, Bay City, Medina County and Hondo
• Radar conditions near 9 PM Central
• Overnight High-Resolution Rapid Refresh model guidance
• Possible additional rainfall totals near Del Rio, Uvalde, Kerr County and Junction
• Flood-safety concerns after dark
• When the rain threat begins shifting farther west

Rivers, creeks and streams are already elevated in areas that have received 10–17 inches of rain. Additional rainfall could quickly worsen flooding. Stay weather-aware, avoid flooded roads and low-water crossings, and be ready to move away from flood-prone areas if conditions deteriorate. Follow warnings and instructions from local officials.
