Timing and Overview: A heavy rainfall event is expected across parts of South Texas tonight into Wednesday as a cold front approaches the area.

If a more appreciable flash flood threat develops farther south, then the flash flood watch may be expanded to the remainder of the area. The cold front will move off the coast late Wednesday afternoon/evening, with a strong offshore flow developing in wake of the front. South Texas Impacts: Rainfall: Rainfall amounts will range between 1 and 3 inches over much of South Texas with heaviest amounts across the northern parts of the region. Locally heavier amounts between 3 and 6 inches may be possible. The locations most likely to experience the heaviest rains are north of a line from Encinal to Skidmore to Port Lavaca. Expect at least minor flooding of streets, creeks, drainage ditches, and low water crossings. There is a potential for flash flooding in these areas. Severe Thunderstorm Potential: Low. There is a small threat of strong thunderstorms with wind gusts of 40 to 50 mph near the strongest storms, which could cause small tree limbs to break. Marine Hazards: A small craft advisory is in effect today until 6pm for strong onshore winds in advance of the front. Northerly winds will increase behind the cold front Wednesday night into Thursday morning with small craft advisory once again possible. 👍 FRIEND OR ✚ FOLLOW US AT: https://facebook/FultonWeatherChannel ® for ☁ Weather, 🐟 Fishing , and 🎩 Daily Tidbits! 👉 Don’t forget to 【✔ Like ✔ Comment ✔ Share and ✔ Tag】 👍
