an update from a Harris Co., Flood COntrol District Meteorologist:

Flash Flood Emergency for Onion Creek and San Marcos River.

Persons in these watersheds near the creek or river should move to their rooftops or climb trees immediately!

Tremendous flood waves have been generated by 12-16 inches of rainfall in the last 8 hr along and just west of I-35. Law enforcement and USGS river gages indicate catastrophic rises on these watersheds overtopping and destroying bridges and inundating hundreds of homes. Homes along the river banks will be washed away and destroyedclimb trees to save your life. Do not attempt to flee in a vehicle. Many vehicles have been washed away this morning.

This flood emergency includes the City of San Marcos and all locations along Onion Creek on the south side of Austin.
