Synopsis: In advance of an upper level low approaching slowly from the west, light to moderate rain began falling in the mid afternoon of January 16. Due to the saturated nature of soils over the area, nearly all rainfall became runoff, with flash flooding developing across low water crossings with accumulations as little as one half inch. A general rainfall of one-half inch to one inch covered South Central Texas, with isolated maximum totals of up to 4 inches.
