Flood Watch

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be possible.

* WHERE...Portions of east and northeast Texas, including the following counties, in east Texas, Angelina, Nacogdoches and San Augustine. In northeast Texas, Cherokee, Rusk and Smith.

* WHEN...Through this afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Areas of showers and a few embedded thunderstorms associated with the remnants of Edouard, will continue through the afternoon across portions of East and Deep East Texas. Widespread rainfall totals of 1 to 3 inches, with isolated higher amounts up to 5 inches, have fallen across much of the Watch area since Wednesday morning, with additional rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches expected through this afternoon, with isolated higher amounts possible. Given that the grounds are nearly saturated, any additional heavy rainfall will quickly run off and cause flash flooding. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
