.NOW...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP IN A MOIST AND
UNSTABLE AIR MASS. DOPPLER WEATHER RADAR INDICATES CELLS ARE
MOVING TO THE WEST NORTHWEST AROUND 10 TO 15 MPH. MOST RAINFALL
RATES OVER THE LAST HOUR HAVE BEEN IN THE .1 TO .2 INCH RANGE BUT
RADAR IS SHOWING MUCH STRONGER RATES OF .5 TO 1.0 INCH PER HOUR
JUST SOUTH OF THE INTERNATIONAL BORDER WITH THIS OVERALL MOISTURE
FIELD MOVING NORTH TOWARD THE BORDERLAND. EXPECT ACTIVITY TO
CONTINUE AND INTENSIFY THIS AFTERNOON WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
AND LOW AREA FLOODING BEING THE MAIN THREAT. SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY
WINDS TO 40 MPH ALONG WITH OCCASIONAL CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING
WILL ALSO ACCOMPANY THESE STORMS.
