Flash flooding and river flooding can be related, but here's a reminder of some of their key differences

Scattered near flood to minor flood conditions will continue for several days. Looking ahead, rain chances increase again this weekend. Significant river flooding is not expected at this time, but stay tuned for updates. #txflood

Ample rainfall over the last month has led to normal to above normal streamflow levels in rivers across much of the eastern half of Texas. This latest round of rainfall this last weekend resulted in minor river flooding on the Trinity River in North Texas. #txflood

Widespread rainfall has been ongoing in North Texas overnight and through this morning with the highest amounts exceeding 4 inches south of the DFW metroplex. This has resulted in river responses including forecast minor river flooding on the Trinity River at Dallas. #txflood

Heavy rainfall is forecast to continue this evening in much of North and East TX, bringing a potential for new action stage to minor river flooding in the area. Stay weather aware and follow your local weather forecast office for the latest updates. #txwx #txflood

Rainfall is forecast to continue this weekend for much of North, Central and coastal areas of TX. We are expecting isolated higher flows in rivers where heavier rainfall occurs, but no significant river flooding is forecast. #txwx

Upper soils have saturated, especially in the west and along the TX coast, thanks to previous rounds of rain. With weekend rainfall in the forecast, this could lead to some elevated flows in NM and TX though significant river flooding is not expected at this time. #txwx #nmwx

While slightly below storage volume from this time last year, reservoirs in the Nueces basin have increased since last month thanks to waves of rainfall. The current flood wave passing through upstream of Lake Corpus Christi will be a welcome addition to the water supply. #txwx

Climate Outlooks for June suggest the possibility for drought improvements in Texas and New Mexico which will be a welcome relief for parched soils. #txwx #nmwx #drought #flood

Heavy rainfall potential exists for western TX and eastern NM this week. Localized flash flooding is possible, but river flooding is not expected. Stay tuned to your local NWS Weather Forecast Office for flash flood-related updates.

Plentiful rainfall in May has increased river streamflows and improved ongoing drought conditions in Texas, but drought conditions persist across our region. Extreme and worse drought conditions have gradually decreased in area though. #drought #txflooding
