Heavy rain potential shifts east overnight

A Flood Watch is in effect for all of Central Texas through 7 PM Thursday. Many areas of Central Texas have seen 1-2″ of rain out of our slow moving storm system, but a few isolated areas have seen higher total. The potential for heavy rain will hold on throughout the night, but will gradually shift to the east.

By sunrise Thursday morning the heaviest of the rain will be shifting across our eastern counties, and as we move through the morning and midday hours Thursday rain chances will gradually decrease. The next big story for us is our cold front pushing through on Friday! Gusty north winds on Friday will usher in some much cooler fall weather for the weekend and much of next week. Highs over the weekend will only make it into the low 70s, and we will likely be down in the 40s for lows Sunday and Monday morning.
