With little-to-no precipitation expected, Texans across the state should prepare for a severe cold weather event with freezing cold temperatures, wind-chills, and high winds. The Governor encouraged Texans to take necessary precautions to keep their homes, pets, and property safe from cold weather conditions and noted the State of Texas will have emergency response personnel available 24/7 to keep Texans safe.
Severe storms with damaging winds, large hail, tornadoes, heavy rainfall, and flash flooding are expected to impact large regions of North, Central, and East Texas. Portions of West Texas may experience severe winter weather impacts, including snow.
The heavy rain Friday prompted the NWS to issue a Flood Advisory as dozens of low-lying streets and intersections in San Angelo were flooded while the water made its way to the Concho River and the Red Arroyo.
About 3/4 of an inch of rain fell between 2 a.m. and 8 a.m. Friday morning in the San Angelo area on average with an additional two inches likely as temperatures remain steady in the mid 40s.
