The Austin area remained at a slight risk of excessive rainfall Wednesday morning as many of the storms missed the Austin metro, while heavy rains pummeled the Hill Country and left areas like Kerrville at a moderate risk of flash flooding, according to the National Weather Service.
On Tuesday, Austin Mayor Kirk Watson and Travis County Judge Andy Brown issued local disaster declarations for the city and county ahead of the potential for heavy rainfall.
The morning commute could be slowed by water pooling on streets and possible road closures, especially at low water crossings. Before heading out, be sure to check the latest travel conditions.
