DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 100 AM CDT (0600 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Bill was
located near latitude 30.2 North, longitude 97.0 West. Bill is
moving toward the north near 13 mph (21 km/h). This general
motion is expected to continue today with a turn to the northeast on
Thursday.

Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 35 mph (55 km/h) with
higher gusts. Additional weakening is forecast during the next 48
hours.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 1000 mb (29.53 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL:  Bill is expected to produce total rain accumulations of
4 to 8 inches over eastern Texas and eastern Oklahoma and 3 to 6
inches over western Arkansas and southern Missouri. Isolated
maximum amounts of 12 inches are possible in Texas and Oklahoma.
These rains may produce life-threatening flash floods.

WIND:  Wind gusts to tropical storm force winds are occurring in
rainbands to the east of the center.  These gusts should subside
today.

STORM SURGE:  The combination of a storm surge and the tide will
cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising
waters.  The water could reach the following heights above ground if
the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide...

Upper Texas and Western Louisiana coasts...1 to 2 feet

The deepest water will occur along the immediate coast to the
southeast of the center.  Surge-related flooding depends on the
relative timing of the surge and the tidal cycle, and can vary
greatly over short distances. For information specific to your area,
please see products issued by your local National Weather Service
forecast office.

TORNADOES:  A few tornadoes may occur over parts of east-central
Texas through this morning.
