Lampasas County will face another round of thunderstorms this morning, and flooding remains possible.
The National Weather Service has issued a flood watch that will remain effective through 1 a.m. Friday morning for Lampasas, Hamilton, Coryell, Bell and surrounding counties. NWS Doppler radar was tracking strong thunderstorms over eastern Lampasas and Mills counties at 7:45 a.m., moving east at 40 mph.
