Heavy rain is causing localized flash flooding in parts of Central Texas Monday.

Heavy rain prompted floodgate openings at Lake Austin and Lake Bastrop as a flood watch remains in effect for the Austin area.

People in flood-prone areas should move to higher ground and drivers should avoid travel, according to TxDOT. If necessary, drivers are urged to "turn around, don't drown" at flooded roadways.
