ACUS43 KWBC 180232 SCCNS3 Storm Summary Number 6 for Heavy Rainfall in Texas Hill Country NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 1000 PM CDT Fri Jul 17 2026 ...Rainfall will continue to become more scattered and diffuse across southwestern Texas... For a detailed graphical depiction of the latest watches, warnings and advisories, please see www.weather.gov At 900 PM CDT...NWS RADAR shows isolated to scattered thunderstorms moving north to south into the Pecos River Valley and the Texas Big Bend region courtesy of an upper-level low. Rainfall rates are on the order of half an inch to an inch a hour, bringing some localized, low end flash flood risk over the Davis Mountains and perhaps the urban areas of El Paso. The storms should wane with the loss of instability overnight. ...Selected preliminary Storm Total Rainfall in inches from 100 PM CDT Mon Jul 13 through 900 PM CDT Thu Jul 17... ...TEXAS...

For Saturday, the storms will contain locally heavy rainfall rates that may exceed flash flood guidance. The flash flood threat is expected to be isolated to scattered with minor impacts as the storms will not be very organized. On Sunday, drier air will continue to surge into the area as high pressure builds in and allow for typical summer air mass thunderstorms for southwestern Texas. Areas recovering in the Hill Country should see dry conditions with high pressure building in. This will be the last Storm Summary issued by the Weather Prediction Center for this event.

ACUS43 KWBC 171435 SCCNS3 Storm Summary Number 5 for Heavy Rainfall in Texas Hill Country NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 1000 AM CDT Fri Jul 17 2026 ...Heavy rainfall slowly diminishing for the Texas Hill Country... Flash Flood Warnings and Flood Warnings are in effect for portions of the Edwards Plateau and Texas Hill Country. Flood Watch remains in effect across the Hill Country, Edwards Plateau and Trans-Pecos region of the western Texas Panhandle. For a detailed graphical depiction of the latest watches, warnings and advisories, please see www.weather.gov At 900 AM CDT...NWS RADAR continue to show a broad shield of moderate to heavy rainfall across the Concho Valley/northern Edwards Plateau. Additional scattered showers and thunderstorms extending northeast into Northwest Texas and far southwest Oklahoma, as well as, more scattered storms developing across the Serranias del Burro in Coahuila, Mexico, extending across the Rio Grande toward Del Rio into the far southwest Hill Country. Rainfall rates and overall coverage continues a show a downward/weakening trend currently across the entire shield and showers with a few places still experiencing 0.5-1"/hr rates, though a few isolated localized storms can remain over 2"+/hr if intensifying. Broad areas of flooding remain due to days of extreme rainfall with many rivers at moderate to major flood stage. ...Selected preliminary Storm Total Rainfall in inches from 100 PM CDT Mon Jul 13 through 900 AM CDT Thu Jul 17... ...TEXAS...

However, there appears to be a decoupling of this mid to upper-level forcing and the low-level inflow, high instability surges off the western Gulf and so generally thunderstorm activity is to be significantly reduced in coverage and intensity later this afternoon into tonight/early morning tomorrow for the areas that have been most affected in the Texas Hill Country and Edwards Plateau, with a few scattered thunderstorms possible though likely further north toward the Rolling Plains and Northwest Texas/Southwest Oklahoma. The more significant convective activity is likely to be across S New Mexico/Western Texas Panhandle, as there remains a Slight Risk of Excessive Rainfall through most of those areas. Storms will be more isolated to widely scattered in coverage and while intense (rates of 1.5-2"/hr) overall totals and flash flooding potential will be much more localized in nature. The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction Center at 1000 PM CDT. Please refer to your local National Weather Service office for additional information on this event. Gallina $$

Flood Watch remains in effect across the Hill Country and southwestern Texas. Flash Flood Warnings and Flood Warnings are in effect for portions of the Texas Hill Country. For a detailed graphical depiction of the latest watches, warnings and advisories, please see www.weather.gov At 900 PM CDT...NWS radar and surface observations show storms moving south to north in a training manner across the same areas that have received feet of rainfall over the past few days. The storms are containing rainfall rates upwards to an inch an hour over areas that have ongoing flooding, though the storm motions appear to be moving faster than earlier today as a meso-low pressure is not apparent on radar of this evening. The winds continue to veer out of the south and southeast, funneling high moisture transport and PWATS exceeding 2 inches. ...Selected preliminary Storm Total Rainfall in inches from 100 PM CDT Mon Jul 13 through 900 PM CDT Thu Jul 16... ...TEXAS...

The coverage of storms will likely increase overnight into the morning as the low level jet increases the moisture transport into western Texas. The current forecast calls for an additional 2-3 inches of rainfall, but locally higher amounts greater than 4 inches are certainly possible given the behavior of previous nights' storms and the favorable environment for heavy rainfall. Any additional rainfall will exacerbate flash flooding concerns, as well as river flooding. There will be a western trend of storms beginning tonight and into Friday and Saturday. As the mid-level low pivots westward, the storms will tend to concentrate towards southwestern Texas, including the Big Bend, Concho Valley, and the Edwards Plateau region. Scattered flash flooding will remain possible for the areas mentioned above for Friday afternoon and Saturday, but the weather pattern does not look as conducive for organized high end flooding. The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction Center at 1000 AM CDT. Please refer to your local National Weather Service office for additional information on this event. Wilder $$

Rainfall amounts between 10-16" have already fallen in parts of the Hill Country west of San Antonio, and any additional rainfall will prolong and exacerbate ongoing areas of flash flooding. Significant to even catastrophic flash flooding remains likely in the hardest hit areas through the remainder of today and into the pre-dawn hours on Thursday. There is a High Risk of Excessive Rainfall in effect through tonight into early Thursday for much of the Pecos River Valley into the western Hill Country. There is a Moderate Risk for Day 2 (Thursday into early Friday) for the same general area though shifting slightly westward. The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction Center at 1000 AM CDT. Please refer to your local National Weather Service office for additional information on this event. Dolan $$

ACUS43 KWBC 151456 SCCNS3 Storm Summary Number 1 for Heavy Rainfall in Texas Hill Country NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 1100 AM EDT Wed Jul 15 2026 ...Multiple days of heavy rainfall across portions of Texas, particularly the Texas Hill Country... A Flood Watch is in effect extending across the Texas Hill Country, westward through the Davis Mountains in the Trans-Pecos of the Western Panhandle of Texas. There are Flash Flood Warnings and Flood Warnings in effect for portions of the western Texas Hill Country and Concho Valley in Central Texas. For a detailed graphical depiction of the latest watches, warnings and advisories, please see www.weather.gov At 1000 AM EDT...A very warm and moist air mass continues to reside in proximity to an east to west oriented stationary frontal zone across eastern to western Texas. The front resides along the southern periphery of a broad mid-level high pressure across the eastern portion of the United States with very weak flow allowing for very slow moving thunderstorms. Each cycle comes with high rainfall rates and localized high rainfall totals in short-duration resulting in flash flooding conditions. Repeated days in close proximity to prior cycles have resulted in high rainfall totals (see below) also resulting in broadening riverine flooding. ...Selected preliminary Storm Total Rainfall in inches from 100 PM EDT Tue Jul 13 through 900 AM EDT Thu Jul 15... ...TEXAS...

The high moisture with some solar heating will likely destabilize with multiple regenerative cycles of thunderstorms today, tonight and into the new few days as it slowly shifts into the Trans-Pecos in the next few days. Rainfall rates of 2-3"/hr are probable locally and overall totals are locally reaching 10-15", though additional 10-15" are possible locally though may not intersect areas that have experienced those totals already and will expand the overall footprint of higher extreme rainfall totals over the coming days. As such, there is a rare High Risk of Excessive Rainfall in effect today into early tomorrow for much of the Pecos River Valley into the western Hill Country with a subsequent Moderate Risk for Day 2 (Thursday into early Friday) for the same general area shifting slightly westward. The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction Center at 1100 PM EDT. Please refer to your local National Weather Service office for additional information on this event. Gallina $$
