Best of luck with your natural disasters, we have been dealing with wildfires, same stuff, different method...

Damn Erik, That doesn't look good at all. Is everyone and your animals OK?

Yessir, I have it all pumped out of the barn now. It got really close but fortunately didn't get into the house.

A close one! Glad things turned out OK! I wonder how the bottom and your bass lake are at the ranch?

Ranch is good. We got a lot of rain there but no flooding like up where I live thank goodness.

 

[Hogpatrol]

Yeah, you don't need another flood at the ranch and the dam going again. That was terrible.

Ooooof no kidding that was really expensive.

We're damp down here in Houston, but nothing serious. We have set record cool high temps the last couple days...highs of about 62 or 63. That's a 115 year old record.

I'm more than a bit surprised that your rain hasn't moved down our way. That's the normal pattern of things.

Same here in NTX.... been bad.... everything is at max capacity & over the banks..... several roads/bridges out. More to come..... it’s either a flood or drought here in TX!

 

[AustinL]

Glad y’all are drying out Erik!

People that haven’t lived there have a hard time understanding how that flatland can flood

 

[Ridgewalker]

No way! Sgt_zim I don’t believe Houston could possibly be “damp”!
Maybe more like soggy! And it doesn’t even have to be raining!

The Llano River getting back to normal today. Crested at almost 40 ft, which is about 30 feet over flood stage.

 

[Ridgewalker]

I can only hope everyone is safe. Another “100 year” phenomenon!

We are in Spain, but spent a lot of time on the phone with our house-sitter. The San Gabriel was well out of its banks, but still had a 150 meter buffer from the house at crest. Watching tomorrow closely.

Lake Travis Texas flooding

 

[cagkt3]

I always hate to complain about getting rain in west TX, but it's even getting crazy out here...Hwy 158 outside of Midland washed out and is closed.

 

[WAB]

Idiot, I was trying to google the latest news and entered it in AH. Apologies.

Lake Travis

Even with them opening floodgates at the dam, the level continues to rise............

San Gabriel River at Georgetown crested yesterday and has dropped quite a bit.

I’m driving I-10 right now east of Van Horn and it appears it has been wet and chilly here by the condition of this hill!
