Issued by the National Weather Service at 6:25 PM CDT on August 19, 2008
regional weather discussion... Rain showers will continue across parts of central and southern Oklahoma... and western North Texas this evening. Through 8 PM... a few areas of moderate to occasionally heavy rain will be possible along an area extending from Crowell to Archer City... and between Okeene and Guthrie. Moderate rains will also occur in the El Reno area. Local rainfall rates of 1/4 to 1/2 inch per hour will be possible with some of the heavier showers. An upper level low pressure system over western North Texas will continue to generate showers and a few thunderstorms overnight. Rainfall in some areas of central and southeast Oklahoma could be heavy. Although rainfall amounts may not be as heavy tonight over southwest Oklahoma and western North Texas... the ground remains saturated in several areas from earlier rains... so that even moderate rains could cause additional flooding.
