Austin Floods: Rain, Rivers, and Safety
Description
Austin soaked in a record-breaking downpour—over three inches in one day, the wettest since February 2025. Floodgates at Tom Miller and Lake Bastrop dams swung open early Monday to handle the surge, sending muddy, rushing water through downtown and toward the Gulf. Creeks and rivers are still clearing, so low-water crossings remain closed. Lake Travis jumped seven inches overnight and could rise more. While flash flood warnings expired, scattered storms lingered north and west into Monday afternoon. LCRA’s watching closely—and urging everyone: Turn around, don’t drown.
