RAINY WEEKEND AHEAD
It's going to be a rainy weekend for North Texas. A low pressure system from the Gulf of Mexico will continue its trek through Central Texas and will gradually merge with a cold front arriving from the North. What that means for us is off and on rain today, tomorrow and Sunday. On top of that, the latest maps show this Low Pressure stalling in East Texas for most of next week. We will include rain in our forecast through Tuesday at least, but the heaviest rain will fall today through Sunday.
Not everyone will be rained on at the same time, all the time, but all parts of North Texas will get some rain this weekend.
4 to 6 inches of rain are possible with isolated pockets of 7 to 8 inches, so the National Weather Service has placed all of North Texas under a Flash Flood Watch through Sunday. Remember, if you reach a flooded roadway, TURN AROUND, DON'T DROWN.
Flooding is the 2nd greatest weather killer. (Heat is #1). Half of all flood deaths are vehicle-related. Most victims are male. Stay safe this weekend and make sure you tune into Channel 33, KDAF "The 33" for the latest forecast every night at 9pm with Rebecca Miller and Bob Goosmann.
