A foot of rain?!?! OMG!!

This is shaping up to be flooding of historical porportions.One of those hundred year events The problem is a low over Texas .It can't move becuz it's sandwiched in between high pressure systems.Its suppose to gradually move out over the next few days,but expected heavy rain over Western portions of N.Texas tonight will make today look like a typical spring shower.Amounts as high as 5 iinches can be expected according to WFAA noon weather reports

[Shoshana]

I just seen this on drudgereport-18 inches of rain!

For some reason the link won't work right, hope this one makes it:

The threat of flooding continues as a weakening upper level disturbance still remains in place over Oklahoma and Texas. With a little assistance from warm Tropical Moist air, showers and thunderstorms has become numerous, resulting in creeks, lakes, and rivers rising above flood stage, and threatening nearby neighborhoods. The storms however will become more isolated as we go into the 4th of July weekend.

The Flash Flood Watch that was in effect for the eastern 1/3rd of North Texas has been allowed to expire, however a Flash Flood Watch remains in effect for the rest of North Texas until 4:00PM CDT. Most of the heavy rain from today on will be concentrated on the western areas, however, we'll continue to see scattered thunderstorms. Although the rain looks like it has ended, there are some areas to be concerned of: residents along the Brazos River watch and wait to see if the river will continue to rise and threaten their homes. The same situation is happening in the Dallas suburb of Cadillac Heights near the Trinity River (Video). Meanwhile, a Texas town of Breckenridge already evacuated their homes.

The rain chances should begin to reduce by the 4th of July Weekend, however, according to a WFAA-TV meteorologist, our wet summer will be well above average in July, and when that's the case, our highs could be well below normal. Plenty of good news there, because we may not have to deal with 100*F weather anytime soon.

Another day, another round of heavy rain. Yeah, I know I said it hundreds of times in the past 2 weeks, but that's what's happening in the North Texas region. No Flash Flood Watch is in effect for North Texas, however, several Flood Warnings are still in effect for lakes, rivers, creeks, and small streams that has crested above flood stage. A FLASH FLOOD WARNING is in effect however for Eastern Cooke County until 10:15AM CDT. Over an hour ago, NWS meteorologists determined that very heavy rainfall upto 3 inches has fallen in that specific area, including Gainesville, and Callisburg. If you live within the warning area (considering the catastrophic event has happened less than a couple of weeks ago), put your disaster preparedness plan into action. If you happen to see a street that's flooded, the advice is that you should not cross it, even on foot. In other words, Turn Around Don't Drown!

This wet trend is expected to continue through the 4th of July weekend with the highest concentration for heavy rainfall along and west of a Cooke/Grayson County Border line, Weatherford, to Southeast of Brownwood. Remember, even when the rain has stopped, excessive runoff can still result in flooding.

It's the beginning of July, and once again as predicted, Mother Mature has ripped open the rain clouds in North Texas. The upper level disturbance (or Low Pressure system) is slowly creeping back down to Texas bringing more heavy rain and thunderstorms, resulting in (guess what?) more flooding! This has prompted the National Weather Service to issue a Flash Flood Watch for the entire North Texas region through this evening (this watch may be extended through Wednesday). The residents in Granbury has been given orders to evacuate their homes after the Brazos River crested a few feet above flood stage. And from this week's forecast, we're gonna see yet another ill-timed rain storm on Independence Day. So much for the parades, fireworks displays and the pool parties. But by the weekend, the storms will be more isolated.

According to some local news sources, the stoprms may be widely scattered on Independence Day.

I don't think the local mets have a handle on whats happening.It seems every time the long range forecast calls for a lessening chance of rain,the closer it gets to the dates,the greater the chance.They are saying 20% chance on Saturday,and little to no chance by Sunday.We will see.I live in Hunt county and we have been getting pummeled by the rain this morning-3 inches so far.Scattered street flooding
