/12Z TAFS/

REMNANTS OF TROPICAL STORM BILL CONTINUE TO PUSH NORTH THROUGH
TEXAS THIS MORNING WITH WIDESPREAD MODERATE RAINFALL ACROSS MUCH
OF THE AREA. MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL WILL PREVAIL AT LEAST
THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS IN THE METROPLEX WITH VIS TEMPORARILY
DROPPING TO AROUND 1SM AND CIGS AROUND 800FT. THE CENTER OF
