SITUATION OVERVIEW
------------------

Potential Tropical Cyclone 1 will continue to move near the Texas coast
today, before crossing into southwest Louisiana this evening.
Potential impacts to southeast Texas include the prospect of locally
heavy rainfall and flash flooding, 1-3 feet of coastal flooding across
the coast and along the bays, and gusts to tropical storm force along
the immediate coast. Impacts will persist through today before
diminishing this evening as the system lifts to the northeast of the
area. A Tropical Storm Watch remains in effect for all coastal areas
of SE Texas and the Gulf waters out 60 nm, with the exception of
Matagorda Bay.

POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-----------------

* FLOODING RAIN:
Prepare for dangerous rainfall flooding having possible significant
impacts across portions of southeast Texas. Potential impacts include:
- Moderate rainfall flooding may prompt several evacuations and
rescues.
- Rivers and tributaries may quickly become swollen with swifter
currents and overspill their banks in a few places, especially
in usually vulnerable spots. Small streams, creeks, canals, and
ditches overflow.
- Flood waters can enter some structures or weaken foundations.
Several places may experience expanded areas of rapid
inundation at underpasses, low-lying spots, and poor drainage
areas. Some streets and parking lots take on moving water as
storm drains and retention ponds overflow. Driving conditions
become hazardous. Some road and bridge closures.

Prepare for locally hazardous rainfall flooding having possible
limited impacts across the northern Brazos Valley and Piney Woods
Region.

Elsewhere across Southeast Texas, little to no impact is anticipated.

* SURGE:
Coastal flood warnings and advisories have been issued for the
immediate coast. Please reference the Coastal Hazard Message for
more information. Potential impacts in this area include:
- Numerous roads may be closed. Low lying property including homes,
businesses, and some critical infrastructure could be inundated.
Some shoreline erosion will occur.

Elsewhere across Southeast Texas, little to no impact is anticipated.

* WIND:
Little to no significant impacts are anticipated at this time
across Southeast Texas.

* TORNADOES:
Prepare for a tornado event having possible limited impacts across
coastal portions of southeast Texas. Potential impacts include:
- The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the execution
of emergency plans during tropical events.
- A few places may experience tornado damage, along with power
and communications disruptions.
- Locations could realize roofs peeled off buildings, chimneys
toppled, mobile homes pushed off foundations or overturned,
large tree tops and branches snapped off, shallow-rooted trees
knocked over, moving vehicles blown off roads, and small boats
pulled from moorings.

Elsewhere across Southeast Texas, little to no impact is anticipated.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
----------------------------------

* EVACUATIONS:
Follow the advice of local officials.

* OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION:
If you live in a place particularly vulnerable to flooding, such as
near the ocean or a large inland lake, in a low-lying or poor drainage
area, in a valley, or near an already swollen river, plan to move to
safe shelter on higher ground.

Always heed the advice of local officials and comply with orders that
are issued. Do not needlessly jeopardize your life or the lives of
others.
