Yep several of the mesoscale models have waves of storms training over the same areas through the day tomorrow.Another flood watch may need to be issued.
The RGEM model definitely has my attention.

The FV3 model has more than 14 inches in portions of Wharton and Colorado counties.(FWIW) It will be interesting to see what the 0Z runs show.

00z FV3 is significantly drier than its 12z run
00z HRRR is unimpressive as well

A tricky forecast, no doubt. FV3 also not handling evening convection the best. HRRR may not be extreme, but a solid 1"-3" through tomorrow afternoon. The 00Z NAM is the wettest run of the evening (so far) with persistent banding setting up. It also initialized fairly well. We'll see.

Crazy lightning. Thanks for sharing.
YW, I did have to go below ground for a little bit from the Supercells that came from the west.

Tried to record today, but the lightning proved itself finicky again...

What jumps out at me with some of the latest mesoscale models forecasted 48hr QPF totals is the low accumulations over Central TX, South Central TX, and The TX Big Bend areas…The same areas that were forecasted to receive some fairly healthy rainfall amounts earlier in the week and just a day or two ago.

I think HGX may add a few counties to the flood watch in the morning.
