...Heavy Rainfall Expected Across Portions of the Four State Region This Weekend...

ESFSHV

An upper level disturbance will begin moving our way late tonight
resulting in periods of showers with embedded thunderstorms across
the region after midnight. This rainfall will only become more
widespread as we go through the day Saturday and especially
Saturday Night. Look for widespread rainfall amounts of near one
to three inches with isolated higher amounts possible. The
rainfall should quickly exit the Four State Region from west to
east during the day Sunday.

While rainfall rates will likely not be excessive enough to
result in widespread flash flooding, poor drainage and flood prone
areas will be susceptible to flooding. The greater impacts will
likely come from already swollen bayous, lakes and rivers which
remain high from previous rainfall. This forecast rainfall will
likely result in either a slow down to recent falling trends or
additional rises on most all area waterways that will continue
into next week.
