Texas Severe Flood Watch | Effective 07/15/2026 00:46

* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be possible. * WHERE...A portion of West Central Texas, including the following counties, Concho, Crockett, Irion, Kimble, Mason, McCulloch, Menard, San Saba, Schleicher, Sutton and Tom Green. * WHEN...Through Thursday evening. * IMPACTS...There is a potential for life threatening flooding within the watch area. Considerable to locally catastrophic flash flooding impacts are likely for portions of the Northern Edwards Plateau including portions of Crockett and Sutton counties. Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding will occur in poor drainage and urban areas. Low-water crossings will be flooded. Extensive street flooding is likely and flooding of creeks and rivers is possible. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Multiple rounds of heavy rainfall are expected over portions of West Central Texas today through early Thursday evening. A series of upper-level disturbances will interact with an influx of tropical moisture across the region through the next couple of days. High precipitable water values will fuel highly efficient rain- producing storms, with model guidance indicating near- stationary clusters capable of producing 2 to 4 inches of rain per hour. This could lead to storm totals of 4 to 8 inches over the Watch area with isolated areas seeing 10+ inches. The highest threat centers along the I-10 corridor, extending north into the southern portions of the Concho Valley and Heartland. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
