Heavy rain and thunderstorms moved across parts of Texas on Thursday, creating a risk of flash flooding in Austin, San Antonio and North Texas.

Dallas News reported high water and storm-related collisions on North Texas roads as rain affected the region. WFAA forecast periods of heavy rain from Thursday into Friday, while KXAN warned of a flash-flood risk in the Austin area. FOX 7 Austin also said incoming storms could produce flooding.

In San Antonio, KSAT forecast afternoon rain and possible flooding as storms approached. The San Antonio Express-News reported that the expected timing of the South Texas storms had shifted.

The Texas storms were part of a broader period of severe weather affecting the southern and central United States. CBS News reported that Pacific hurricane systems had contributed to flooding and tornadoes on Wednesday, with another thunderstorm threat expected across the central U.S. on Thursday.
