National Weather Service infrared satellite image of the Gulf of Mexico shows why big rains are expected by tomorrow, if not before, as far inland as Rancho Rolly Polly. The weather service in New Braunfels expects to be putting up a flash flood watch on Wednesday. But LCRA’s Bob Rose thinks the hill country might not get much: "…the latest forecast guidance indicates the heaviest and most concentrated area of rain will occur across the coastal plains region and the eastern half of Central Texas, generally to the east of Interstate 35. Within this area, there will be some potential for localized flooding tonight and Wednesday."
UPDATE Then the patterns shifted and by 8 a.m. meteorologist Troy Kimmel was predicting a quarter inch or less west of I-35 before a shift back to hot and dry. Oh, well.
