ALT Graphic titled "Locally Heavy Rain and Instances of Flooding Possible," updated June 14, 2026. The slide features two maps outlining a Level 2 of 4 (Slight Risk) for flash flooding across the majority of the region—including Austin, San Antonio, and the Hill Country—covering both the "Today through Tonight" and "Monday and Monday Night" periods. Detail text at the bottom warns that multiple waves of rain and storms will bring 1 to 3 inches of rain, with isolated totals of 6 or more inches possible.
ALT Infographic titled "Flash flooding can escalate quickly." The text highlights that heavy rain can lead to sudden flash floods on roads or at campgrounds. It outlines three critical safety steps: set up a way to get weather warnings on your phone, get to higher ground immediately when alerted to a flash flood, and never enter floodwaters in a vehicle or on foot. The right side features a realistic photo of a silver station wagon half-submerged in deep water on a flooded, tree-lined residential street during a downpour.

ALT National Weather Service graphic showing a Flood Watch in effect for South-Central Texas between 7 PM Sunday, June 14, through 7 PM Tuesday, June 16. The Flood Watch includes the Austin and San Antonio metro areas, portions of the Texas Coastal Plains, the Hill Country, and areas along the Rio Grande between Del Rio and Eagle Pass. Life-threatening flooding is possible somewhere within the Flood Watch area. Isolated rain totals above 8 inches are possible. This rain may fall quickly in torrential downpours. Rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying, flood-prone locations could flood quickly. Stay weather aware! Turn around, don't drown!
