So far, the rains from tropical depression #2 have been pretty scant around my place in Helotes today. My 12 hr. storm total is 0.09.

NOAA is still thinking we will see some heavy rain overnight. Below is their latest thinking:

Here is a brief update and the outlook for tonight and Friday.
The remnants of TD#2 will continue to move west-northwest
just south of the U.S-Mexico border in the Lower Rio Grande
Valley tonight. Showers and thunderstorms will be widespread
across Texas. We expect quite a few locations to receive
1-2 inches of rain tonight through Friday afternoon, with
some locations receiving up to 6 inches, especially across the
Rio Grande Plains.

There may be minor flash flooding anywhere in our area where
1-2 inches of rain falls in a short period of time. The Flash Flood
Watch has been extended areawide through Noon on Friday.
However, the main threat will be continued major flooding along
the Rio Grande.

Our latest briefing graphic is attached, and of course, all the latest
