Forecast: Flood Watch expires, but additional storms will be possible through midweek

AUSTIN, Texas — For the first time since Thursday evening, there are no active flood watches or warnings across the area as we head into the start of Tuesday. The flood threat will finally lower Tuesday, though rounds of showers and storms will still be possible for the afternoon. The highest storm chances Tuesday, however, will be away from the hardest hit areas, with the main focus along and east of I-35 into the Coastal Plains. Some areas in those locations could still pick up an additional 2″ – 3″ of rain where heavy downpours set up. 

Wednesday will bring additional rounds of spotty rain and storms as a disturbance moves in from the Gulf, Wednesday’s rain chances will spread back into the Hill Country a little, but the higher chances will likely remain along and east of I-35. 

By Thursday and Friday, drier and hotter conditions. With lots of sunshine and highs back into the middle 90s, this will give our area a good chance to dry out. 

The weekend will bring the return of some rain chances, but right now those chances are only at a 20% probability.
