Heavy rain moving into North Texas; flooding possible as chances for showers, storms continue throughout weekend

Thursday, heavy rain moves into the metroplex by the afternoon. As a result, it's a First Alert Weather Day in North Texas.

 There is a level 2/4 risk for flooding from DFW toward the Red River counties.

By the afternoon, shower and thunderstorm coverage will likely increase. Expect heavy downpours to continue into the evening.

Looking ahead to Memorial Day Weekend, daily shower and thunderstorm chances are expected. While there may not be a deluge of rain, expect to be dodging showers and storms if you plan to be outdoors, especially late Saturday afternoon.

Shower and storm chances continue into next week with seasonable high temperatures into the mid-80s.
