Flash Flood Watch Issued for Lufkin & Nacogdoches

Have you had enough of the rain and cold?  Unfortunately, it looks like the worst is yet to come.  The National Weather Service has now issued a Flash Flood Watch for parts of East Texas.   

The Watch will go into effect at 9 Friday night and continue through 4 p.m. Saturday afternoon.  The counties in Deep East Texas included in the watch area include Angelina, Nacogdoches, Sabine, San Augustine, Panola, and Shelby.

One to three inches and more in isolated instances could fall across the area.  One to two inches of rain have been rather commonplace across the region since Christmas so any additional downpours could lead to flash flooding.
