* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Showers and thunderstorms, some of which will contain heavy
    rainfall, will continue to spread east across East Texas and
    North Louisiana this morning, before diminishing from west to
    east later today. Rainfall amounts of one to three inches,
    with isolated higher amounts, will fall over the Watch area

    that fell earlier this week, with this additional rainfall
    quickly running off and possibly resulting in flash flooding.
