AUSTIN, Texas — Heavy rain is moving across Central Texas, first hitting the Hill Country before spreading east toward Austin and the I-35 corridor.

Up to 9 inches of rain fell around Junction by Thursday morning, sending the Llano River sharply higher. CBS Austin Meteorologist Avery Tomasco said the river is expected to flood over the next couple of days as the floodwater moves downstream.

The Austin area could see 1 to 3 inches of rain, with possible flooding at low-water crossings and in poorly drained areas. A Flood Watch remains in effect for most of Central Texas through Friday night.
