ATX could see severe storms, possible flash flooding

AUSTIN, Texas -- Deep moisture has surged across South Central Texas as a potent upper-level disturbance approaches the region. That will bring us mostly cloudy and breezy conditions with a few thunderstorms Friday but most of the action will come late tonight.

What You Need To Know
  • Strong and severe storms possible
  • Expected late tonight/early Saturday
  • Heavy rain, some flooding likely

The I-35 corridor is under Level 2 "slight" risk of severe storms with large hail and damaging winds the primary concerns. Flash flooding is a possibility with rainfall amounts of 1-2 inches area wide. Up to 4 or 5 inches may be possible in a few spots.

The squall line looks to arrive around midnight with storms surging eastward by Saturday morning. As some areas have seen significant rain in the last few days, the potential for quick runoff could produce flash floods. Remember, "Turn around and don’t drown” if you encounter a flooded roadway.

The atmosphere will stabilize once the system passes east. Sunday looks to be partly cloudy with highs in the mid and upper 80s.
