Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - A weak surface front will remain stationary across East Texas and North Louisiana through Tuesday. Periods of showers and thunderstorms, some containing heavy rainfall, will develop tonight through Tuesday across the watch area. These showers and thunderstorms will be efficient rainfall producers, with rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches expected, with isolated higher amounts in excess of 5 inches possible, much of which may fall in a short period of time. Thus, the potential for at least localized flash flooding will exist across portions of East Texas and North Louisiana through Tuesday afternoon. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
