#HeyTexas ! When our partners and friends NWS Southern Region forecast 3”-4” of rain, that’s an average for the area. Don’t be surprised to see 6”-8” pockets. Stay tuned to local officials and forecasts. If water is covering the road, #turnarounddontdrown #tadd #AreYouReady #IHaveAPlan

Just a few inches of water can be hazardous.☔️

Monitor local forecasts and know the flood risk in your area.⚠️
