…Flood Warning extended until Friday evening…The Flood Warning
continues for the Guadalupe River Near Bloomington.
* from Wednesday morning to Friday evening…or until the warning is
cancelled.
* At 8:00 AM Tuesday the stage was 17.6 feet.
* Minor flooding is forecast.
* Flood stage is 20.0 feet.
* Forecast: The river is forecast to rise above flood stage by tomorrow
morning and continue to rise to near 20.8 feet by Thursday morning.
Then the river will fall below flood stage by Friday.
* At 20.0 feet Minor lowland flooding occurs, with the flow reaching
the right flood plain near the Invista Plant near Bloomington.
Downstream above Highway 35, the flow escapes into the left flood
plain cutting off the lowest homes.
A cold front is expected to move south across the region during the day on Tuesday, reaching the Upper Texas Coast Tuesday evening. A few strong to severe thunderstorms may be able to develop within a larger thunderstorm line along and ahead of the cold front as it crosses the region, with best chances for any severe weather potential generally along and north of the Interstate 10 corridor from mid to late morning through the afternoon hours.
We will have to keep an eye on if the cold front slows or stalls as this may result in locally heavy rainfall impacting areas near and southwest of the Houston metro that saw heavy rain yesterday. Confidence is low in this occurrence, but if it does happen it may impact portions of the evening commute. Transportation interests south of Interstate 10 are encouraged to keep up with the forecasts for Tuesday afternoon and evening.
Hazards
+ Gusty winds
+ A brief tornado or two
+ Quarter-size hail
+ Locally heavy rain
