Severe Flood Watch in Effect
A severe Flood Watch is currently active for the Little Elm area, signaling a significant threat of dangerous flooding. This alert remains in effect until early tomorrow morning. Residents should stay vigilant as weather conditions deteriorate rapidly.

It is critical to monitor local updates and be prepared to move to higher ground if necessary. Do not attempt to drive through flooded roads, as even shallow water can be dangerous to vehicles and pedestrians.
