1244 PM CDT Sat Aug 26 2017

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1019 AM CDT Sat Aug 26 2017/

..Catastrophic and life-threatening flooding expected due to
prolonged heavy rainfall from Harvey...

UPDATE...
Harvey continue to drift inland. The main rain area around the
storm was affecting the southwestern set of counties where
moderate to heavy rainfall was accompanied by wind gusts over
tropical storm force. A large outer rain band was moving inland
from the Gulf of Mexico across Galveston and Chambers counties
north- northwest across Walker, Grimes, Brazos and Madison
counties. Very gusty winds, isolated tornadoes, and heavy rainfall
will accompany the outer rain band. Southeasterly winds were
piling water along the western shores of Galveston Bay.

Updates have been issued.

.AVIATION...
The messy forecast will persist as thunderstorm bands from Harvey
continue to move across SE TX. While the latest band is nudging E
of I-45 another appears to be forming and moving in from the west
for the latter part of the afternoon. Given the progs of the rem-
nants of Harvey lingering over the region through the near future
there is a lot of uncertainty with when things will be ending. As
such, have gone with prevailing TSRA UFN. 41
