Serious Flooding Emergency Unfolding in Kaufman County Texas Including Crandall, Scurry, and Rosser as Training Storms Dump Over 7 Inches and Continue Pouring Wednesday
KAUFMAN COUNTY, TEXAS — A serious and active flooding emergency is unfolding across Kaufman County, Texas on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, as training storms continue to pour relentlessly over the same locations, pushing recorded rainfall totals to 7.14 inches and climbing near Scurry with absolutely no signs of the rain letting up. The communities of Crandall, Scurry, and Rosser are bearing the brunt of the event as the training storm pattern locks in over the same geographic area and continues stacking rainfall at dangerous rates.
Over 7 Inches Recorded Near Scurry as Training Storms Lock Onto Same Location
Radar imagery shows an intense pink and purple core centered directly over the Scurry area with a recorded accumulation of 7.14 inches at the time of the update, with totals described as still counting and continuing to rise. The training storm pattern, where successive storm cells repeatedly move over the exact same location, is the primary driver of this extreme localized accumulation.
The radar signature shows the most intense cores concentrated in a tight zone between Crandall and Scurry along Highway 175, with surrounding areas also showing significant red and orange returns indicating heavy rainfall rates across the broader Kaufman County corridor. This type of training event is capable of producing catastrophic flash flooding in a very short period of time.
Absolute Downpours Occurring Across Crandall, Scurry, and Rosser With Serious Flooding Active
Conditions across Crandall, Scurry, and Rosser are described as absolutely pouring with serious flooding already actively occurring across the affected communities. The combination of over 7 inches of rainfall and continuing rain arriving faster than any drainage system can handle has pushed water levels to dangerous and potentially life-threatening levels across the area.
Residents across Kaufman County in the affected zone should not attempt to drive through any flooded roadways under any circumstances. Even roads that appear to have shallow water across them can be hiding deeper and faster-moving water capable of sweeping vehicles off the road instantly.
