Austin and the Hill Country are under a flash flood warning at the moment, and a flash flood watch all day today. As of seven this morning, the measuring station two miles from the house had collected two and three-quarters inches in the last twenty-four hours. This means it’s rained enough to start making a small dent in the annual rain deficit (nine inches since the year’s beginning); rain totals across the city run from six inches at Wimberley (they must have had some king-hell storms down there) to just over an inch near Manor.
.TODAY…AN 80 PERCENT CHANCE OF SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS. HEAVY RAINS AND FLASH FLOODING POSSIBLE. HIGHS IN THE MID 80S. SOUTHEAST WINDS 15 TO 20 MPH.
.TONIGHT…CLOUDY WITH A 50 PERCENT CHANCE OF SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS. RAIN MAY BE HEAVY AT TIMES. LOWS IN THE LOWER 70S. SOUTHEAST WINDS AROUND 20 MPH.
