Good morning, drivers. Here is what you need to know to start Sunday, November 8.
South Texas flood threat raised overnight: The Weather Prediction Center now expects a widespread 3 to 6 inches of rain south of I-10, locally as much as 8, and the Flood Watch for the Laredo and Coastal Bend corridor runs through Monday noon with isolated totals of 7 to 9 inches possible. The worst flash-flood chances come late this afternoon and evening into early Monday — stage north of I-10 if you can.
Colorado chain checks bite: Troopers contacted 703 drivers in two dry-weather I-70 details near Dotsero, wrote 262 citations — and stopped 119 drivers who failed to stop at the check at all. The next Dotsero detail is Tuesday, Nov. 10. Carry chains that fit, and stop when directed.
That’s the mile. Drive safe — full stories are on the homepage.
