🌧️ North Texas is expecting multiple rounds of rain from moisture associated with Hurricane Polo starting Wednesday and going into the weekend.

Don’t be fooled by the recent lack of rainfall. Heavy rain falling in a short period of time can still overwhelm drainage systems and lead to localized flooding.

Know the difference between a Flood Watch and a Flood Warning, stay weather aware, and be prepared to change your plans if conditions worsen.

🚗 Remember: Turn Around, Don’t Drown.
