The Llano River at Llano has reached moderate flood stage and the Lower Colorado River Authority has opened floodgates at both Starcke and Wirtz Dams. If you live downstream of those, now is the time to prepare your home for possible flooding, and if needed evacuate.

The cold air will stay locked in place for several days and with warm air riding up and over the cold air at the surface, that will keep the clouds and showers around for several more days.
Please stay weather aware as flood waters can rise VERY QUICKLY!
