BULLETIN...IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
FLASH FLOOD WATCH
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HOUSTON/GALVESTON TX
1045 AM CDT SUN JUN 10 2001

...FLASH FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES FOR THIS AFTERNOON FOR THE SOUTHEAST 
HALF OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS...

COUNTIES IN THE WATCH AREA INCLUDE...BRAZORIA...CHAMBERS...FORT 
BEND...GALVESTON...HARRIS...LIBERTY...MATAGORDA...MONTGOMERY...
POLK... AND SAN JACINTO.

THE LOW PRESSURE THAT WAS ALLISON WAS CENTERED JUST SOUTHEAST OF 
GALVESTON AT 1045 AM. THE PAST FEW HOURS LITTLE MOTION WAS 
INDICATED. TROPICAL MOISTURE REMAINS OVER MUCH OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS.  
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED  THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO 
DEVELOP IN AND AROUND THE CIRCULATION. ALTHOUGH THE MOST ORGANIZED 
RAINFALL IS FORECAST OVER THE GULF AND EAST INTO LOUISIANA. WIDELY 
SCATTERED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS 
THIS AFTERNOON.  ISOLATED HEAVY RAIN UP TO 2 INCHES IS POSSIBLE IN 
THE WATCH AREA. NORMALLY THIS WOULD NOT POSE A FLOOD THREAT. 
HOWEVER...STREAMS ARE FULL AND THE SOIL CANNOT ABSORB ANY ADDITIONAL 
RAINFALL...THUS FLASH FLOODING IS POSSIBLE. GIVEN THE CRITICAL FLOOD 
SITUATION OVER MUCH OF THE AREA...CONTINUING THE WATCH IS WARRANTED.

REMEMBER...DO NOT DRIVE INTO FLOODED AREAS. THOUSANDS OF MOTOR 
VEHICLES HAVE BEEN FLOODED OUT DURING THE LAST FEW DAYS AND DRIVING 
ACROSS ROADWAYS COVERED WITH DEEP WATER COULD RISK NOT ONLY YOUR 
VEHICLE BUT ALSO YOUR LIFE!

IF FLASH FLOODING OCCURS IN YOUR LOCATION...REMAIN CALM AND MOVE
TO HIGHER GROUND IMMEDIATELY.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO OR LOCAL MEDIA FOR THE LATEST
FORECASTS AND POSSIBLE WARNINGS.
