Might be good arrowhead hunting after the water recedes and it dries out a little.😉

The bad part is the predictions it will get close to San Antonio and do a reverse and counter-clockwise spin towards Houston. That was the problem with TS Allison that devastated Houston with probably the worst flooding in Houston's history. Allison flooded Erath and Youngsville Louisiana too, for 5 days, I lived in Erath for 19 years - I collected 5K in flood insurance for my shop

Here's what 17" of rain looks like at our place. Oct. 30, 2015. Did it again over Memorial Day In 2016! ![[Linked Image]](https://s5.postimg.org/w8dg3p3af/IMG_2944.jpg) Perhaps you should have a backup sign ready that says "Beware of Shark".

No rain here yet around 3:30pm local. Just a high cloud later with big cumulus moving along underneath in that steady breeze.
Most folks I talk to here in San Antonio think this whole thing is gonna be a dud, because most tropical storms and hurricanes that were supposed to be a threat since I've been living here ended up going somewhere else, or causing minimal flooding when the remnants got here.
Guess we'll know how wet things turned out by Monday.

looks like it will go in 28 miles north of town (rorkport) which will spare us the worst winds, probably only get to a round a 100 here.

Wind has picked up out of the North at 25-28 Mph with light rain, here now. I have been with the Border Patrol all morning chasing illegals, we finally caught 11 of them, all young kids teens and early 20s 4 off them young girls, girls were a crying and screaming they didn't want to go back Mexico, 24 hrs from now we would have had a bunch of dead kids, they had no food no water and there wasn't one that weighed over 110 lbs. Don't know who dumped them off on us but if I did I would shoot the S.O.B.
would rather deal with Harvey. Rio7

Joe Bastardi, nationally acclaimed hurricane forecaster says its great its coming in ne of Corpus or the storm surge combined with flooding from the river combined with north winds after it passed would have hit Corpus again with flooding from the bay side and would have caused a disaster.
He is still worried about that happening on Wed in Galveston, unless the storm weakens and goes in again west of Houston/Gal, depending on if it moves up the coast or goes back into the Gulf and strengthens.
He will be on Hannity tonight. Very interesting forecast hes hoping is wrong but has seen many in this parallel do some crazy things.

Lots of liquid sunshine already. I have family in Kingsville and Corpus that I'm much more worried about than here in Angleton.

Just went out to check on my woods place west of Brazoria, saw three large trees down on the CR getting there, one down across a driveway outside of Lake Jackson. HEAVY rain between Brazoria and Lake Jackson, but it died out before we got home in Oyster Creek. Went by a house we are thinking of buying to see what a good rain does, as far as street flooding. Be more informative after this thing goes through - maybe mid week next week?
Lots of idiots on the roads, driving way too fast and careless for a dry road, much less one ponding in a downpour!
