...The Flood Warning continues for the following rivers in Texas..
Rio Grande at Presidio International Bridge affecting Presidio
County
Rio Grande below Presidio 5SE affecting Presidio County

Releases are ongoing and are expected to continue, so additional rises
are possible.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Motorists are urged to heed flood warnings, and exercise caution if
traveling through this area. Vehicle-related fatalities are the

If you encounter a flooded stretch of roadway, do not attempt to
cross it. You and your vehicle could be swept downstream in rushing
floodwaters. Turn around, don't drown!
River levels are high. Ranchers and farmers should move livestock

Flood Statement

310 PM CDT Fri Sep 1 2017
...The Flood Warning continues for the following rivers in Texas...
Rio Grande below Presidio 5SE and Rio Grande At Lajitas 1WNW affecting
Presidio County
Rio Grande at Presidio International Bridge affecting Brewster and
Presidio Counties
Due to releases from Luis Leon Reservoir on the Rio Conchos, the
Rio Grande from Presidio International Bridge downstream through
Lajitas will remain in minor flood until at least early next week.
Releases are ongoing and expected to continue, so additional rises
are possible.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Motorists are urged to heed flood warnings, and exercise caution if
traveling through this area. Vehicle-related fatalities are the
number one source of flood fatalities in West Texas and New Mexico.
If you encounter a flooded stretch of roadway, do not attempt to
cross it. You and your vehicle could be swept downstream in rushing
floodwaters. Turn around, don't drown!
River levels are high. Ranchers and farmers should move livestock
and machinery out of flood-prone areas if time permits.
Keep in mind that any additional rainfall across the area could
significantly change the present forecast stage.
Additional information is available at: www.weather.gov/midland

$$What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Midland/Odessa, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 21, 8:45 AM CDT, 2 hours 13 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 21, 8:45 AM CDT, 2 hours 13 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX 845 AM CDT Mon Aug 21 2017 .UPDATE... Canceling the rest of the Flash Flood Watch. && .DISCUSSION... Widespread showers and thunderstorms over southeastern New Mexico and the higher terrain of southwest Texas have decreased over the last couple of hours. South to southwest flow aloft over the region will persist through the day, but so will cloud cover, especially over the western half or so of the forecast area. Models are indicating a shortwave trough/shear axis translating northeastward over these areas this afternoon/evening, with additional showers and thunderstorms developing through max heating. However, do not think the areal coverage will be great enough to warrant continuation of the Flash flood Watch, and will cancel same. There still could be a few storms which produce heavy rainfall and isolated flash flooding, but the extent is not expected to be great enough to continue with the watch. Will send an update shortly to adjust the forecast accordingly. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 610 AM CDT Mon Aug 21 2017/ AVIATION... Currently have VFR conditions across the board this morning as an area of showers continues to diminish and move north. Should have a break in activity through early afternoon with VFR persisting. Thunderstorms will be possible again later this afternoon but confidence too low to include mention at this time. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 338 AM CDT Mon Aug 21 2017/ Subtropical ridge centered off the NC coast stretches to TX with a closed low over the CA coast. Circulation between this high and low pulling Pacific moisture across Mexico and into SE NM and W TX. This low will spin over CA the next several days before lifting NE over the ridge late in the week. By the weekend the ridge will build over the Western US. Looking at another couple more warm days with near normal temperatures before a front bridges down into the area Wednesday. Could see highs in the 80s for much of the area WEdnesday and Thursday before warmer temps return for the end of the week. Warm overnight lows will continue as have good low level Gulf moisture with dewpts in the 60s. Had lots of storms over the west yesterday with some locations receiving heavy rain. As of 08z a stream of showers and thunderstorms flows northward from the Rio Grande up across the Trans Pecos and SE NM. These storms should continue through the morning hours before dieing out... expect more to develop during the afternoon. A Flash Flood Watch remains in effect for SE NM southward to the Presidio Valley... have extended the watch out to 15z as heavy rain potential continues. Rain chances Tuesday will once again favor the higher elevations with possibility of rain along the front for the plains on Wednesday. ***On a side note, the sky forecast for the solar eclipse today may be somewhat disappointing for many. Overnight convection continues early this morning and is expected to persist through at least sunrise. Unfortunately, clouds look to stick around through much of day, especially across SE NM and south through the Upper Trans Pecos and Davis Mountains. The best shot for at least partly cloudy skies at the time of the eclipse maximum (12:57pm CDT) looks to be over the central-eastern Permian Basin down through the Lower Trans Pecos and perhaps the Big Bend. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
