The trailing front over the central and western Gulf coast is
expected to remain stationary, while lifting as a warm front from
the Lower Mississippi Valley into the Tennessee and Ohio Valley
moving eastward on Sunday. Continued thunderstorm activity is
expected into Sunday morning. Expect 1-3 inches of additional
rainfall, with local amounts up to 5 inches, from Southeast Texas
across the Gulf Coast states into the Tennessee Valley by the end
of Saturday night. Flash flooding is possible within this region,
especially with saturated soils across portions of Texas,
Louisiana, and Mississippi. River flooding remains a concern
through the foreseeable future along the lower Mississippi River.
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.
