A Flood Watch is in effect for much of the area this afternoon and tonight, until 7 AM Friday. Focused areas of showers and storms will be capable of producing 1 to 3 inches of rainfall. Localized amounts in excess of 5 inches are also possible. Heavy rainfall in short periods of time will bring a risk of flooding and flash flooding within the Watch area.

Focused areas of showers and storms with heavy rain are expected as a cold front moves south into the area. This will start in the Big Country this afternoon and spread south to the Concho Valley by late afternoon and evening, and then south to I-10 this evening and early tonight. Heavy rainfall in short periods of time may cause flash flooding.

Warm temperatures will continue today. The approach and arrival of a strong cold front will bring showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and tonight. After the cold frontal passage, temperatures will be much cooler Friday into the weekend, and the area will have gusty north winds on Friday.
