Coastal areas will have the greatest potential for flooding overnight into Wednesday as Potential Tropical Cyclone One skirts along the Upper Texas Coast. Rainfall rates could exceed 4 inches per hour in the heaviest downpours. Additional widespread rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches with isolated higher totals possible especially along the coast. Grounds are fairly saturated across portions of Southeast Texas which would allow for a quicker transition of the rainfall to runoff. This increases the potential for street flooding, especially in the areas that have received 4+ inches of rain over the past few days. - Http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
