Stay safe. Nothing to speak of here. Other than 5 acre grass fire yesterday that was so wet we had to fight the whole thing by hand to stop it. That sucked.
Had to get out of the deer stand before light this morning. We were not supposed to rain until 5pm today or so... the thunder got me off the tripod at 645am....
I've heard of 10 inches in an hour in some places... fire stations in Buda supposed to have 2-3 feet of water inside them
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

Kept me up most of the night here between Bergheim and Kendelia. Been on and off this AM but just started pouring again with pretty healthy winds. Needless to say the pool is full and the rain catchment tank is near so. Good news.
Conduct is the best proof of character.

Rain has stopped for now. 8" in alread saturated ground! Watched one fence wash out! About 50 yards or so. Had a big burn pile I was about to burn get picked up and floated into fence! Foot and a half of water in front yard. But my new shop in back is ok!!!!! Daughter said they saw cars in town completely inundated. They can't get home yet either. Lots of roads underwater.

Even raining out here! Participated in a prescribed fire workshop over in Capitan yesterday and it rained out our ranch trip. Drove in rain all the way home and we had thundershowers all night long. Still dripping this morning. El Nino is here! Two days of scattered and localized heavy stuff, with some complete cover delivering a gentle steady drizzle. GREAT "growing Weather". Hope all our Texicans are holding on, in good shape. GTC

Got up at 5 AM to go hunting. Light rain and warm temps. Left the house about 5:30 headed west on 1604 towards I 10 West. Rain got heavier the further west I went. Standing water on highway pulling hard on steering in places. Got to Camp Bullis only to find some 3 feet of water across roadway. Turned around and came home. Found out that at least one car was swept off road after I left. No barricades were up when I got there. Tom

Just been drizzling here - since last evening. Had .4" when I looked around 7AM. been off & on every since. Someone needs to post that old Johnny Cash song - "How High's the Water, Momma" for you folks down Texas way! Read this AM that the hurricane stormed across Mexico, but hurt very few - as 200 million Mexicans were in the USA at the time
I've always been a curmudgeon - now I'm an old curmudgeon.
