Good Chance for Rain from Edouard

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ...

The remnants of Tropical Storm Edouard are forecast to move northwest and pass straight over the Big Country area Wednesday. That means a good chance for rain and isolated heavy thunderstorms.

Locally heavy downpours are possible. As we saw last summer with a tropical system in Taylor County, should it linger in any one area, the chance for localized flooding will increase.

Right now, 1 to 3 inche rains are expected around the area.

The system should linger in West Central Texas into Thursday, possibly Friday, so a 20 percent chance for rain is in the Thursday/Friday forecast.

Tuesday Night: Turning cloudy with a 30% chance for rain. Low 71. East wind 10 to 15.

Wednesday: Cloudy with a 70% chance for rain, locally heavy downpours will be possible. High 85 with east and northeast wind 15 to 20 and gusty at times in heavier rain bands.

Wednesday Night: Continued cloudy with scattered showers and storms, low of 71.

Thursday and Friday: Partly cloudy, 20 percent chance for rain, high around 90.
