Upper soils have saturated, especially in the west and along the TX coast, thanks to previous rounds of rain. With weekend rainfall in the forecast, this could lead to some elevated flows in NM and TX though significant river flooding is not expected at this time. #txwx #nmwx

While slightly below storage volume from this time last year, reservoirs in the Nueces basin have increased since last month thanks to waves of rainfall. The current flood wave passing through upstream of Lake Corpus Christi will be a welcome addition to the water supply. #txwx

Climate Outlooks for June suggest the possibility for drought improvements in Texas and New Mexico which will be a welcome relief for parched soils. #txwx #nmwx #drought #flood

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Heavy rainfall potential exists for western TX and eastern NM this week. Localized flash flooding is possible, but river flooding is not expected. Stay tuned to your local NWS Weather Forecast Office for flash flood-related updates.

Flows will remain elevated for several rivers in SE TX this weekend, but no additional significant river flooding is expected.

Plentiful rainfall in May has increased river streamflows and improved ongoing drought conditions in Texas, but drought conditions persist across our region. Extreme and worse drought conditions have gradually decreased in area though. #drought #txflooding

Here is a look at our current river forecasts in the wake of heavy rainfall yesterday and with some additional rainfall to come. This rainfall, along with plentiful rainfall over the past month, has also resulted in an increase in statewide reservoir storage. #txwx #txreservoirs

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Heavy rainfall was observed in NM and western TX over the past 24 hours. While that rainfall is not expected to lead to river flooding, we have issued criteria forecasts in portions of Texas due to forecast rainfall. #nmwx #txwx #txflooding

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Probabilistic river forecasts indicate a chance of isolated minor flooding mid-week,. By late week, there is a low end chance for isolated moderate flooding and more widespread minor flooding across the state. #txflood #txwx

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Rainfall over the past 5 days was widespread 2-4 inches in Texas with isolated more than 10 inches near the coast. This has made near-surface soils wet in many locations. Additional rainfall in these areas will likely produce runoff and possible river flooding. #txflood #txwx

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Multiple rounds of rainfall mostly impacting Coastal TX, but also scattered areas in Central TX, will continue this weekend. By Sunday there should be more of a focus on southeastern TX. Scattered river flooding can be expected to develop. #txflood #txwx

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

A threat of river flooding continues across Central, Coastal, and South Texas this weekend into next week. This is tied to widespread primed upper soils and potential intense rainfall rates. Some areas are also saturated in the lower soils increasing their risk. #txflood #txwx

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

For Texas Flood Awareness Week here is a message about what to do before a flood. Prepare for floods by knowing if your home is in a flood plain, finding out what roads are likely to flood, and identifying the fastest way to higher ground. More at: https://t.co/QzIl95IufY

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Rainfall so far has produced isolated action stage rises, but with more rainfall to come, continued rises and minor to scattered moderate river flooding this weekend into early next week remains possible. #txflooding #txwx

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Every year we observe Texas Flood Safety Awareness Week in remembrance of the 2015 Wimberley, TX and now the 2025 Kerrville, TX flooding in the Hill Country area. #TX #Flood #2015 #2025 #Wimberley #Kerrville

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

River rises have occurred from the past 24 hours of rainfall. With more rainfall coming, chances of Action to Minor and pockets of moderate river flooding are possible. #tx #flood

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

With multiple rounds of rain this week and into the Memorial Day weekend, the probability of action and minor river flooding increases with potential moderate and isolated major flooding possible. Check in with your local weather forecast office for the latest updates. #TX #flood

Will you be ready for sudden flash floods? Stay #WeatherReady by enabling weather alerts on your phone. If flooding occurs while you’re outdoors, immediately get to higher ground, and NEVER enter flood waters in a vehicle or on foot. https://t.co/apjQ0JApvF #WeatherReady

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Multiple rounds of heavy rainfall are forecast this week through the weekend. There is a potential for significant river flooding in areas east of I-35 spanning to the Texas coast. Check in with your local weather forecast office for the latest updates. #txwx #txflood

[NWSWGRFC @NWSWGRFC]

Forecast rainfall next week will bring renewed chances for river flooding in Texas after several recent rain events moistening soils. Stay weather aware by following your local National Weather Service office. #txwx #txflood
