In southeast Oklahoma, McCurtain. In northeast Texas, Bowie. * Through Tuesday evening * A band of showers and isolated thunderstorms associated with the remnants of Barry are expected to develop tonight, bringing locally heavy rainfall and possible flash flooding to low-lying spots and area roadways near creeks and streams. * Rainfall amounts of two to four inches are expected across much of this area. However, there is a possibility of much greater amounts occurring over very localized areas with six to ten inch rainfall amounts. This amount of rainfall could quickly result in severe and even life threatening flooding if it did occur. * What makes this situation even more potentially dangerous is that the heavy rainfall may not even begin until after midnight, when people are asleep and not aware of the situation!! If traveling late tonight, do not attempt to drive over flooded roadways.
