level 2 of 4 risk for excessive rainfall,<\/a> according to the Weather Prediction Center, which provides flood forecasts for the National Weather Service.<\/p>\nArticle continues below this ad<\/p>\n
What does that mean, exactly? If you\u2019re under a level 2 of 4 risk of flash flooding, that means there is at least a 15% chance of flash flooding within 25 miles of your given location. While it\u2019s difficult to pinpoint exactly where flooding will develop, residents across this region are under an elevated flood threat.<\/p>\n
Another round of downpours is possible from overnight Saturday into early Sunday morning. However, the heaviest rainfall is expected to shift farther east. Houston, Beaumont and Lufkin will remain under a level 2 of 4 flash flood risk on Sunday, but San Antonio and Austin will be downgraded to a minimal level 1 threat. Overall rain chances in San Antonio will drop to around 50%.<\/p>\n

Outside of the slight storm chance, the weather is shaping up to be fairly pleasant in San Antonio for the holiday. Morning temps in the upper 60s to lower 70s will transition into afternoon temps in the mid-80s under partly cloudy skies. Humidity, however, could push heat index values, or “feels like” temps, closer to 90 degrees.<\/p>\n
Higher rain chances are expected to persist across East Texas, with a 40% to 50% chance of more storms in cities such as Houston, Beaumont, Lufkin and Texarkana. A small flooding risk could accompany some of those storms.<\/p>\n
Long-range models indicate that another round or two of thunderstorms will be possible between Tuesday and Thursday of next week. After that, drier weather might\u00a0finally return to South Texas.<\/p>\n
