Central Texas is facing another potential threat of flash flooding as meteorologists warn of heavy rain similar to last week’s devastating storms in the Texas Hill Country. KHOU 11 meteorologist Pat Cavlin stated that conditions are ripe for severe weather, with an ongoing flash flood threat noted across the region as of Sunday morning.
Recent rainfall has already affected areas around the San Saba and Colorado Rivers, where radar indicates that some locations experienced a remarkable 8-10 inches of rain. The Llano River at Junction is forecasted to reach 18.90 feet, which is considered a moderate flood stage, raising concerns for residents.
The National Weather Service has issued flash flood warnings for the Guadalupe River in Kerr County, highlighting the urgency for individuals in the area. Rainfall predictions suggest that the same locations hit hard during the floods on July 4, 2025, could see up to 10 inches of rain again. The Weather Prediction Center has marked specific areas as particularly vulnerable to the effects of heavy rain, mapping them out in red on their flood outlook.
Authorities urge residents to stay informed and ensure they have multiple ways to receive weather alerts, especially overnight. A Flood Watch is currently in effect until 7 p.m. Sunday for Central Texas, emphasizing the importance of preparedness in these volatile weather conditions.
While the threat of flooding is significant, well-informed communities can take proactive measures to safeguard themselves and their property. Sharing this information can help ensure that those at risk remain vigilant and prepared.
It is crucial for residents to stay alert and utilize weather apps and alerts to monitor the situation as it develops.
