The National Weather Service is reminding North Texas residents to be mindful of excessive rain this weekend after issuing a flash flood watch for Thursday night. The watch is set to expire Sunday evening, according to the National Weather Service.
Fort Worth areas such as Overton Park and McCart Avenue near TCU campus are among those prone to flash floods.
The National Weather Service said areas of North Texas may receive anywhere from 3 to 6 inches of rain from Thursday through Sunday.


The National Weather Service also said on their twitter page to watch for flash flooding of low lying areas such as small creeks areas with poor drainage.
