Central and southern portions of our area including Brownwood, San Angelo, Brady, Mason, San Saba, and the I-10 corridor have been upgraded to a moderate risk for excessive rainfall overnight. Please see our previous post for our current thinking. Bottom line is that isolated totals of up to 9 inches of rain are possible in the moderate risk area overnight.
