...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS WEST TEXAS
INTO NEW MEXICO...

...West Texas into New Mexico...
Weak troughing aloft and the remaining relatively higher moisture
in place across the region will likely promote the development of
isolated to scattered thunderstorms again on Wednesday. The focus
for the greatest concentration of thunderstorms and rainfall
totals will shift a bit further east this day, likely along the
NM/TX border into the TX Panhandle where amounts of 1-2" with
isolated 3" totals likely. Isolated to scattered instances of flash
flooding will be possible.

...Great Plains...
An axis of higher moisture will be present ahead of an advancing
cold front moving across the Northern Plains. Moist unstable air
ahead of it will promote the development of several clusters of
thunderstorms capable of producing intense rain rates between
1-2"/hr. Isolated to scattered flash flooding is anticipated with
a possible upgrade to a Slight Risk needed for parts of eastern ND
and far western MN if trends continue for a more concentrated area
of thunderstorms and heavy rainfall.
