Breaking: North Texas Braces for Severe Storms and Flooding!

Here is the revised content:

This week, North Texas is expected to experience rainy weather. Storms passed through the region on Sunday, mostly in the late morning and afternoon, and are expected to return in the coming days.

The National Weather Service in Fort Worth has issued a flood watch for areas near and south of Interstate 20, including Dallas County, as well as Ellis and Kaufman counties, effective until 1 p.m. on Monday. Low-lying, urban, and areas with poor drainage are at a higher risk of flooding.

Rainfall in some areas could reach 2 to 3 inches, with isolated locations possibly receiving up to 4 inches. While most of the rain is expected to shift east by the evening, there could be some lingering showers overnight.

Another round of strong storms is expected on Monday, again in the late morning into the afternoon. The highest severe threat, including large hail and gusty winds, will be near and east of Interstate 35. The tornado threat is low but not zero, according to the weather service.

Tuesday may bring a brief break from the rain, but chances for thunderstorms return to the Dallas-Fort Worth area on Wednesday and Thursday.

Localized flooding is a concern due to heavy rainfall, but the timing, location, and severity of the storms later in the week remain uncertain, according to the weather service. High temperatures in Dallas are predicted to range in the 80s all week, peaking at 88 on Wednesday, with lows in the 60s.
