Feast/Famine: 24 hour Brazos Valley rainfall totals

BRYAN, Texas (KBTX) – Rain did some good for parts of the Brazos Valley. Rain caused some frustrations for others. Multiple disturbances dropping south through Texas Sunday and Monday kicked off rounds of scattered rain, thunderstorms, and severe weather across the Lone Star State. The most impactful weather Sunday night pushed wind gusts in excess of 65-70mph across parts of Western Milam County. Enough rain fell in a brief period Monday afternoon, flooding several roads and parking lots in and around Navasota.

Localized heavy rain will likely take a small dent out of the Extreme and Exceptional Drought for parts of the Brazos Valley but not all. The heaviest and most beneficial rainfall fell over West Milam, far South Brazos, Grimes, Central Madison, Walker, Northern Montgomery, and San Jacinto Counties.
