Storms could drop a summer’s worth of rain in parts of Texas this week, threatening significant flooding

Slow-moving storms could drop a summer’s worth of rain over parts of Texas this week, bringing a significant flash flood threat to the state.

Much of eastern, central and southwestern Texas could see downpours heavy enough to trigger flash flooding through Thursday, but the area at greatest risk is near the US-Mexico border in the Rio Grande Valley and the southern Edwards Plateau. Austin, Houston and San Antonio are among the larger cities that could see at least localized flash flooding, especially on Monday and Tuesday.
